Using Technology Better - Edpuzzle in the Maths Program

Our school have been very lucky this term to have Donna Golightly from 'Using Technology Better' coming into school to work with the staff. Donna is assisting us to use technology in our math programs to improve the outcomes for our learners.

Donna has recommended that I use a site called Edpuzzle. 

Edpuzzle is an easy-to-use platform allowing you to engage every student, one video at a time. How does it work? We unlock the power of videos through simple editing tools and dazzling student data. The process is simple - find a video, add questions and assign it to your class. Watch as they progress and hold them accountable on their learning journey.

Donna pointed out that students love to watch videos however most of the videos they enjoy watching are for entertainment purposes. Edpuzzle allows students to understand that videos can be used for learning as they watch the video and answer questions to check their understanding.

Donna demonstrated how to use Edpuzzle with a math group in class with great success.
