Edpuzzle, founded in 2013, takes an existing video, from YouTube or uploaded directly, and lets a teacher embed questions at specific timestamps, turning passive video watching into an interactive lesson where a student has to actually engage and answer before the video continues.
That video-specific focus fills a gap other interactive-lesson tools in this category, Curipod's slideshow-based lessons, for instance, don't address: checking genuine comprehension during video content specifically, with a teacher seeing exactly which students answered correctly and where they got stuck partway through.
A free tier covers basic video assignments, and paid plans start around $13 a month for more features and analytics. For a teacher who regularly assigns video content and wants to verify students actually watched and understood it, rather than clicking play and walking away, Edpuzzle's embedded-question format solves that specific accountability problem directly.
