EDPUZZLE

 

EDPUZZLE

Edpuzzle is an unusual web 2.0 tool for education. It is based on watch-answer the questions. Instead of classic way of testing students like quizzes, multiple-choice  questions or open-ended questions, it is a totally different way of testing. With Edpuzzle teachers prepare a video, they add questions about the video to the parts they want. While students are watching video, it stops and question is seen on the screen. In order to continue they have to answer the questions. Questions are either with options or they are open-ended. If the question is open-ended students write their answers and then their answers are graded by their teacher. This kind of learning make students give more attention to what they are listening because they know that there are questions waiting for them about what they are learning. Another advantage of Edpuzzle is that it reinforces the knowledge that is learned instantly. Because students hear something and after a short time it is teste whether they just heard or they learned it.
