FREMONT, CA: “Screencastify has always had a singular goal of empowering teachers and students of all kinds to improve learning through the power of video. This next evolution of our partnership with Modern Classrooms Project ensures that teachers and mentors within their program will have full access to our entire suite of creative tools to create the best video possible for students. We’re excited to continue to build on our partnership with Modern Classrooms Project and do our part in building the modern classroom — and helping shape the classroom of the future.” says Vishal Shah, CEO of Screencastify.
Screencastify, the leading end-to-end video creation platform, declared a collaboration with Modern Classrooms Project. This nonprofit organization empowers educators to design classrooms that meet the needs of every student. The video creation tools provided by Screencastify will provide MCP educators with new resources to improve teaching outcomes and fuel the future of K-12 learning.
The collaboration offers unlimited premium access to Screencastify to all educators enrolled in the Modern Classrooms Project's Virtual Mentorship Program, allowing more teachers to open new doors by creating dynamic, differentiated instruction and student-centered learning.
“Anyone who has spent time in the classroom knows that the task at hand perpetually feels unconquerable. However, one place to start is to equip educators with new methods that fundamentally restructure how they use space and time in the classrooms. According to a 2021 survey, the Modern Classrooms Project has helped 85 percent of teachers enjoy teaching more and feel more optimistic about their future in education and has made 72 percent more likely to continue teaching as a career. With our partnership with Screencastify, the Modern Classrooms Project is investing in supporting teachers and unleashing their capacity,” says Kareem Farah, CEO and co-founder of Modern Classrooms Project.
Screencastify, an original video creation tool via an internet browser, has evolved into an end-to-end platform that simplifies and makes accessible recording, editing, sharing, assessing, and viewing video, allowing anyone to become a more effective communicator. Since 2016, nearly 13 million users worldwide have used Screencastify to create almost 500 million videos.
The collaboration places simple yet robust video creation tools in the hands of leading K-12 educators who will implement the future classroom. Over 700 expert mentors and distinguished educators have been trained and certified by the Modern Classrooms Project to implement its instructional model effectively in classrooms worldwide.
