Edpuzzle: A Quick Look

Edpuzzle can be best described as being similar to a cloud-based video editing tool. What makes Edpuzzle unique is that its editing features were designed with educators in mind, allowing them to customize the videos for specific learning progression and objectives. Teachers can select from the millions of video lessons already uploaded on Edpuzzle. Teachers who have registered can use the videos already edited by teachers to use instantly as lesson materials or to modify and personalize them to help them connect better with their own students.

Teachers who want to use their own material can upload videos from website sources like YouTube, National Geographic and TED. They can customize the videos by adding their own voice-overs and commentaries, embed assessment questions for students or add links to other related videos. Other features of Edpuzzle include curriculum-based content, functions to set deadlines for homework and projects and even functions to restrict their students’ ability to fast-forward their assigned video lessons.

As a formative assessment tool, Edpuzzle also comes with features that make it easier for teachers to track the progress of their students throughout the curriculum according to their scores. The dashboard for teachers on Edpuzzle displays other data that include the length of time it took for a student to complete an assignment and their scores on the quizzes that are embedded on the videos.

Although all of these may seem nice and very helpful, why does Edpuzzle focus on videos? According to Edpuzzle, their emphasis on the use of videos as teaching and learning tools is based on a study that says 65 percent of students learn better with visuals and that 95% of students regularly view videos on YouTube. Edpuzzle is essentially empowering teachers to make the most of visual learning and let them track the progress of their students at the same time.

According to the website, Edpuzzle was launched in 2013. Teachers have since uploaded around 8 million lessons to its video library that was accessed by 35 million students and with 70 percent of schools in the United States connecting with Edpuzzle in some way.

Signing up for an Edpuzzle account as a teacher is easy and is similar to the usual registration process of most other membership websites. After the sign-up process, it is important for teachers to verify the email addresses that they have provided. This allows Edpuzzle to validate the teachers’ identity, protect their personal information and help them recover their account in case any of them forgot their passwords. Edpuzzle will also use the teacher’s email addresses as a means to inform them about any changes or upgrades in the system.

In some cases, some teachers who are signing up may also need to provide proof of parental consent. Some U.S. states and regional laws require parental consent or consent from a child’s konvensional guardian before any institution or individuals can disclose a child’s personally identifiable information (PII) to a third party. This means that depending on the location of a teacher, he or she may need to provide proof of parental consent before inviting a student to an Edpuzzle classroom. Teachers may obtain proof of parental consent from their school or ask the student’s parents directly for it. Links to templates of parental consents and permission slips are available on the Edpuzzle website’s help and support section.

Searching, Adding and Modifying Videos to Your Own Library

After fulfilling all of Edpuzzle requirements, teachers can berangkat looking for videos and personalize them for their lessons. On their Edpuzzle dashboard, they can begin adding videos to their account by clicking on “My Content,” clicking “Add Content,” and then selecting “Create Video.” Alternatively, they can browse for videos from any of the channels on the left side menu to add to their lesson library.

If teachers from the same schools have used Edpuzzle in the past, teachers who have signed up can also use the same video materials by clicking on “My School.” Edpuzzle’s own channel, on the other hand, shows an expansive video collection of lessons that have already been edited by other teachers. From this channel, you can find videos that you can modify to suit your own lessons. You can also upload videos that you want to use and edit for your lessons from Khan Academy, YouTube, National Geographic and other similar websites.

After finding a video or videos that you want to use, copy and paste it on the Edpuzzle search bar. Alternatively, you can add Edpuzzle’s YouTube extension on your browser to add videos to your library easier. Once you have added the videos to your own library, you can menginjak editing them to suit your online class and assign them to your students.

Edpuzzle’s How-to-Guides on its website provides easy-to-follow tutorials to help teachers familiarize themselves with the many features of the tool. It will be a good idea for teachers to make use of these tutorials to make the most of Edpuzzle’s features.
