Quoted description from the service:
"Edpuzzle is an easy-to-use platform where you can make any video your lesson. With just one click, you can find video lessons created by other teachers, including formative assessment! Another click and you can adapt that video by embedding your own questions or audio. With the final click, assign it to your students and get beautiful hassle-free analytics: see who watched the video, who didn't understand the lesson and who did a good job. Students can re-watch the video as many times as they need at their own pace, while you can easily check their progress from your account."
Two simple, but popular uses:
Share only a section of a video with students.
Share a YouTube video with students but without most ads and recommended links to other videos. This is a best practice to help reduce the distraction of being pulled in to watch unnecessary videos. (Keep in mind that YouTube makes their money by and, therefore, devotes lots of attention to encouraging viewers to watch as many videos as possible, and your students are not immune.)
