For EdTech trailblazers, video can be a game changer. Its ability to engage, inspire, and educate is unparalleled. But how best to use it? The possibilities are endless, but here are 8 unique ways to enhance educational platforms with Ed-Ready video. 

1. AI tutors and adaptive learning applications

Customize learning experiences with video content tailored to each student's needs. Supplement an AI Tutor with Ed-Ready video to make your Tutor more accessible and increase engagement. Integrate video into adaptive learning algorithms that recommend videos based on individual progress, interests, and learning styles. Imagine a platform that suggests videos on calculus for math enthusiasts and engaging history documentaries for budding historians. It's like having a personal tutor 24/7!

Integrate video into digital assignments to help enhance student learning experiences. Use videos aligned with your learning objectives to supplement text resources and cater to different learning styles.
