Free Software for Educators
EDpuzzle is special software that allows teachers and other types of educators to transform standard videos into interactive teaching tools. This can be done in a number of different ways such as adding an audio commentary to relate the video to the class and setting quizzes within the video to help students learn in an engaging and vibrant way.
Making Lessons Fun
One of the great things about EDpuzzle is that the software is very easy to use and there are special step by step tutorials to follow to help make it even easier for educators to get started. Teachers can insert their own questions about what is happening in the video at any point they wish and create questions in a number of different styles to help get students talking and thinking instead of simply passively watching the video and forgetting about it afterwards. Teachers can also discover whether or not different students actually watched the video and how well they did at answering the questions.
Never Get Stuck for Teaching Material Again
As most educators are sure to be aware, students love watching videos and are likely to jump at any chance to ditch the textbooks. EDpuzzle provides a good opportunity to use modern and diverse teaching methods both inside and outside of the classroom and create new ways to deliver information that will stimulate students.
