Product Review of EdPuzzle

This app is perfect for a classroom in which video clips are used to drive home points. Videos can be imported from YouTube, Khan Academy, and Learn Zion; the educator can add his/her voice to the presentation to ask questions and more. This also allows the educator to know whether learners truly understand the message the educator is trying to get across.

What Users Love About the App
“EdPuzzle has been a wonderful platform to use for remote video sharing to groups of people. There are many features, but by far the best are the data analytics and organizational layout.”
“It is very easy to use and has many functions to use in every subject. I like how it now works with the LMS Google Classroom. It has made the ability to assign a video very easy to use and assign.”
“Edpuzzle is an easy way to provide video content to students while still measuring their comprehension. This can be done with questions that are inserted throughout the video, or at the end.”
“My students are heavily visual, easily distracted, and uniquely diverse; EdPuzzle let’s me engage students using audio and visual multimedia while also collecting data on their understanding of the content via embedded questions. I enjoy it, but kids REALLY prefer it!”
“I love the ability to imbed questions for my students to monitor their thinking and comprehension regarding a specific topic, lesson, or activity.”
What Users Dislike About the App
“Some tools did not fit with my work as a teacher. Those tools are required some reconsidering to fit with teacher’s needs”
“Sometimes the video does not work or glitch.”
“The grading integration! For some reason, it says that my students have zeroes until I grade their answers.”
“I can rewind videos but i can’t scrub to the place i want to be, i have to watch the entire portion over again, i cant choose which place i want to rewind and resume the video.”
“There have been issues with uploading videos directly from my device to the site.”
