Although I have used this resource for months-I had no idea what it was capable of.  "Evernote is a great note-taking tool for all educators. It is cross-platform and can be run on your computer or as a web app."

Thank you Tom, I will check out this resource.  Adding transcripts of videos and recordings is an essential aspect of providing learners with "multiple means of representation", one of the principles of UDL that reduce barriers to learning. It is also very challenging to create and/or replicate.  The right tools help. I would be interested in feedback from others on this tool

Great tool for several online activities.

Edpuzzle proves highly advantageous for teachers, providing a user-friendly platform that facilitates easy video editing. With Edpuzzle, teachers can make real-time adjustments whenever they open a video, allowing dynamic customization. This includes the ability to crop, add insightful notes, and even record personalized audio or commentary directly onto the video content. Such features empower educators to tailor instructional materials better to suit their students' specific needs and preferences, enhancing the overall teaching and learning experience.
