AI stands at the forefront of modern educational discussions, symbolizing the next leap in pedagogical innovation. It’s not merely about integrating technology into the classroom; it’s about strategically leveraging cutting-edge AI tools to profoundly and positively influence student learning outcomes.
Edulastic’s Video Quiz and Question Generator are powered by AI technology to continuously improve the education experience of every student. To uncover how these advances resonate with educators, we spoke with a collection of dedicated teachers on how they plan to use these tools in their classrooms.
Edulastic’s AI-Powered Question Generator in the Classroom
We understand crafting assessments that align with state standards while considering depth of knowledge and difficulty level can be a time-consuming task. Edulatic’s Question Generator offers a prompt modal that includes a state standards selector, depth of knowledge (DOK), and difficulty level options.
We sent it to the experts (teachers just like you!) to test out, and here is what they reported:
“The AI question generator option in Edulastic Video Quiz software is amazing. It created quality question prompts relevant to the video and placed them at the perfect timing of the clip.” – Leah Caradonna, 5th-7th Grade Math Teacher, Pinellas School District, FL
“Video Quiz and AI Generator are awesome. The AI-generated questions are really good and help get some basic information for students, as well as moving up the DOK chart. They are suited to the content and on grade level as I requested.” – Pete Stamm, Middle School Social Studies and EdTech Coach, Diocese of Brooklyn, NY
Interactive Assessment Experiences
The Video Quiz feature transforms any video into an interactive assessment tool, allowing educators to embed questions directly within video content. This fusion of media and assessment promotes engagement while ensuring instructional goals are met.

I think students will enjoy the interactive nature of this quiz tool!” – Lauren Turner, Manager of Assessment, Denver School of Science and Technology (DSST), CO
AI-Empowered, Data-Driven Instruction
Data-driven instruction is paramount in modern education. It ensures teaching is not only effective, but also tailored to individual student needs. With Video Quiz and the Question Generator, data-driven instruction becomes more accessible and efficient.

The Question Generator can be used to make less subjective standards-based questions and give a uniform assessment to students.” – Pete Stamm, Middle School Social Studies and EdTech Coach, Diocese of Brooklyn, NY

Engaging Students with AI
In an era of digital distractions, keeping students engaged is both a challenge and necessity. By integrating video with assessment, educators can offer a dynamic and interactive learning environment that captivates students.
“VideoQuiz is a very engaging learning tool. I can envision students finding this a very engaging format for learning as well as assessment.” – Randy Swift, 3rd-4th Grade Math Interventionist, Greenwich Central School District, NY

Saving Time with AI-Powered Tools
One of the primary aims of educational technology is to streamline administrative tasks, thereby giving educators more time to focus on what truly matters: teaching. The easier a tool is to use, the more valuable it becomes in an educator’s arsenal.

Continuing Instruction with Video Quiz
Every teacher knows the challenge of ensuring continuity in learning, even in their absence. Tools that allow for self-paced, interactive learning can be a boon in such scenarios, ensuring the instructional process remains uninterrupted.
“Video Quiz is a great tool when you know you are going to be out of your classroom. The learning can continue no matter who is covering your class.” – Danielle Anderson, 5th Grade Math Teacher, Barnesville Exempted Village School District, OH
