SFPS Digital Learning Summer Camp 2026

Not all screen time is created equal. As schools and teachers across the country rethink device use and push back on passive tech, Edpuzzle offers a way to use its suite of tools so that students are actually doing something meaningful on their screens.

In this hands-on session, you'll learn how to use the full platform with intention by choosing the right format for the job and embedding purposeful questions that require thinking, not just clicking. We'll explore interactive videos that replace passive viewing, Quizzes that gamify formative assessment without turning it into a points chase, Slides that bring a lecture to life with embedded checks for understanding, Docs that deliver chunked, scaffolded reading with built-in accessibility supports, and Student Projects that shift students from consumers to creators. We'll also cover how to pair Edpuzzle with discussion, off-screen tasks, and small-group instruction, plus how to use real-time data to guide next steps. You'll leave with a ready-to-use lesson and a clear framework for deciding when an Edpuzzle is the right tool for the job—and when to put the screens away entirely.
