Video can be a powerful tool for engaging students. First it allows for visual and audio stimulation that helps students retain information. Second, it is also practical for students who would like to view it multiple times to fully absorb the information. We will explore two tools to bring video to your classroom. Screencasting allows you to make and edit videos so that you can customize the video to include the content exactly as you want it. EdPuzzle allows videos to be interactive. As the video plays, questions and comments pop up that the student must engage with before continuing. This allows you to focus the student on the most important content.
