Product Review of Twig Create

Teaching mainly science and social studies. Educators can also quickly create their own videos on any topic using ready-made templates and a large, searchable media collection. However, the learner part of Twig Create is what makes Twig Create so unique. Twig Create offers customizable Lesson Her Plans that encourage learners to think critically about a topic and respond by creating their own videos. For example, an educator introduces her Twig short film about erosion, and a learner records facts in her Twig Create-provided graphic her organizer. Then storyboard what you know about erosion and create a short video in Twig Create. In this video, you can remix clips from Lesson Her videos and include content created and collected by learners. Video projects can be posted on her secure class web page or shared with educators via email or her Google Classroom. Other lessons instruct learners to find reliable sources of research and use the notes feature to gather information.

Detailed lesson plans support ELA goals in addition to content standards. Our lessons, handouts, and rubrics are designed to be easily edited and shared, and have been carefully crafted for different grade levels. There is also built-in lesson support for English learners. Twig Create can be used outside of the lessons provided. Educators and learners can create and share any video using this safe and secure platform. A little overwhelmed by the possibilities? Start with how-to video tutorials and try out ready-made lessons.

Note: Twig Create is powered by video creation platform Binumi, and your Twig Create account is managed by Binumi. Educator accounts are free, but learner access requires a paid Classroom subscription.
