From our customers

"WeVideo gives us the ability to scale our video offerings without extensive staff training or design experience. For example, a social media manager is empowered to create simple videos using the templates we establish in the system, and this allows more people within the agency to be video creators."

David Tisdale Marketing Director, Vx Group

"As an avid content creator, I have tried numerous video editing tools, but none have come close to the versatility, user-friendliness, and feature-richness that WeVideo offers. A standout feature of WeVideo is its collaborative capabilities. WeVideo's real-time collaboration feature allows multiple users to edit a project simultaneously. This collaborative environment promotes seamless communication, enhances productivity, and streamlines the entire editing workflow."

"We needed a tool that would be straightforward and suit everyone, regardless of their technical expertise or hardware. The biggest benefit we’ve seen implementing WeVideo is now hundreds of reporters are editing video that previously were unable to. By expanding our video production capabilities even further, we hope to grow our 50% share of digital news subscriptions of Norwegian households."

"The video content I’ve created with WeVideo has added credibility to my work and has helped me scale my business. It has completely freed up my time so that I’m able to take on more. I went from having the capacity to service five clients at one time to 25 clients."

"I teach with projects, and WeVideo is an excellent platform for students to work collaboratively on video projects. While most teens have some ideas about video from their cell phones, [WeVideo] takes their creativity and skills to a whole new level, allowing them to find their voice in new and exciting ways."

Frequently Asked Questions

Social emotional learning is a process and methodology of cultivating an understanding of one's own emotions, how they impact their relationship with the world, and empathy for those around them. 

The goal of social emotional learning (SEL) is for students to develop five core competencies, which are:
  • Self-awareness: A student's understanding of their own feelings, opinions, and personal values, and the ways these facets of their personality impact their behavior in different situations. 
  • Self-management: A student's ability to keep said feelings and behaviors in check in a wide range of situations, so that they can accomplish goals and finish projects.
  • Social awareness: The way a student interacts with, empathizes with, and feels compassion for others, especially those who are different from them. 
  • Relationship skills: The skills a student needs to build and maintain solid friendships and healthy relationships with other individuals. 
  • Responsible decision-making: Whether or not a student can effectively consider the impact of their decisions on other people or themselves and make a decision that leads to a positive outcome. 

An example of a student who has successfully participated in SEL might be that a student learns to communicate their needs, and is able to foster and develop more positive friendships with their fellow classmates. 

Student engagement is simply the process in which a student lends attention, curiosity, optimism, and interest to a task or subject. Student engagement focuses less on the ability to "do" or complete a task and more on one's relationship with it. If you are assessing student engagement in the classroom, you might ask:
  • How invested is this student in their work?
  • How involved is this student with their peers?
  • How interested is this student in developing particular skills or achieving goals?
  • What might support this student's growth?
  • Is there something that prohibits growth in any area?

Consistently assessing and measuring progress can provide an optimal learning environment for student engagement.

Here at WeVideo, we're huge fans of the 4 C's: Collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, and communication. Collaboration focuses on developing social-emotional skills in group or partner settings. Critical thinking supports problem-solving and analysis. Creativity infuses engagement into every task and communication fosters real-world relational skill development. The 4 C's provide targeted learning outcomes, a structured framework, and student engagement strategies that help you assess and measure progress every step of the way.

Though it's easy to associate student engagement with the hand-raising, eager-to-jump-in student, this isn't always the case. There are countless ways to engage and student engagement should look different for everyone. Some student engagement examples include: learner-made videos, project-based learning, interactive video assignments, gamified learning, and more.
