What is Edpuzzle?

Put pedagogy before tech

Edpuzzle is a site that allows users to select a video and customize it by editing, cropping, recording audio and adding questions to make an engaging and interactive lesson. Students can watch the video at home, and teachers can access details such as when the student watched, areas a student skipped or had to rewind, and responses to the free-response and multiple-choice questions the teacher has embedded.

Edpuzzle integrates with Schoology and provides grade passback to the Schoology gradebook automatically!

When I review the analytics dashboard in Edpuzzle, I am looking for both how the class is doing as a whole (in the Questions tab), and how individual students are doing (in the Students tab). This gives me a sense of how to customize instruction before students even walk into the room, and I can determine who needs individualized attention and who might be able to lead a small-group discussion.

Troubleshooting

Edpuzzle in Schoology Error: if anyone is getting an error, there may be some cases where teachers may need to:

  1. Visit edpuzzle.com, log in.

  2. Click the icon in the top-right corner, and select their Name to open up their Profile.

  3. Scroll down to "Connected Accounts"

  4. Disconnect Schoology.

  5. Then when they click "Edpuzzle" under Add Materials, they should be able to log in again and re-establish the connection. (sometimes they'll need to "refresh" the page)

They should ONLY do this if they're having any troubles getting into Edpuzzle from Schoology, receiving a "something went wrong" message, or a "invald-lti-launch-request-" type technical-looking message.

(For example, this may happen if the teachers already had an active connection with Schoology courses from last year that was set up before the merger of the K-8 with the 9-12 Schoology environments for this school year.)

Edpuzzle Action Needed

Teachers should only do this once their classes are done for the year. Disconnecting it while the course is still being used would disrupt access for students, at a time when they may want to be reviewing their old assignments!

Edpuzzle with Schoology we will need each teacher to manually delete the old consumer key that was setup in the past when we had two different Schoology portals for K-8 and 9-12, now we are combined into one unified K-12 Schoology Portal. With this change, a newer consumer key (connection with Edpuzzle with Schoology) was created. We will need you to delete the old consumer key from your Edpuzzle account to move forward with Edpuzzle Assignments in Schoology that will use the new consumer key. Thank you.

Reminder, please do not remove any connections before the semester is over!

There may be other keys (besides the jrs one that we mention in our video) that teachers see in their profile. Those can be disconnected too. No need to keep any of them connected except for the J%& one (and even if anyone messes up and deletes that one, no big deal! You will be prompted to sign in again in the beginning of 2021-22 School Year in August, and that will re-establish the connection properly!)

If you find that you do not have any consumer keys before or after these steps, next time you create an Edpuzzle Assignment in Schoology it will reconnect and add the newest consumer key back into your Edpuzzle account for integration with Schoology. Here is a video showing how that will work - view video.
