Saint Patrick School, United States

Used Powtoon for On and off, because of changing jobs, but around 4 years

Mar 2021

I wanted to give you a 10 but subscription is costly especially for Catholic private school teachers.

Jed found Powtoon:
  • Significantly improves attainment
    Students are able to demonstrate mastery of content in a very engaging and interactive way and also helping improve their critical thinking skills, communication, and creativity.
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    Keeping the students engaged in the creation of content to demonstrate their learning not only provide them with the tool to explore their creative sides but also help them retain most of the learning.
  • Significantly increases student collaboration
    Allowing students not only to brainstorm ideas during collaboration time provide them with a lot of opportunities to work together with the creation of a project. This kind of activity is so impactful for students as they learn to work with others especially with those who are in remote learning or receiving in-person instruction.
  • Significantly improves teaching efficiency and productivity
    Even though as a class, we have the license, there are still some features that are still off-limits, students then learn to be efficient and resourceful in utilizing only what things or features that are available to them.
  • Significantly improves teacher knowledge and skills
    The impact on a teacher's knowledge rests on the learning of new skills in presenting the lesson or content in a fun and engaging way.
  • Does not save school money
    Honestly, as a teacher and admin at the same time, I use my own money to subscribe to tools that I believe can be very impactful to student learning. So there is really no impact on saving the school money.
