Edpuzzle is a tool for inserting questions and comments into web videos. It’s useful for informal assessment on video content that students view on their own time. Edpuzzle allows you to crop, annotate, and add questions to videos from YouTube, Khan Academy, Vimeo, and other popular video platforms. It’s also free to use!
While Fairfield University licenses Kaltura which also has a video Quiz feature, Kaltura is currently limited to media in Kaltura and YouTube. Edpuzzle is ideal for creating informal video assessments with other video platforms. |
