We’ve solved for engagement. Now we have a new problem:
👉 How do you grade learning that happens in process?

More educators are turning to video to make thinking visible and measurable.

We broke it down with the report in our bio.

The State of Active Learning in the Classroom The classroom has changed, and the data proves it. In our latest research, 625 educators across K–12 and higher education shared what’s really happening in today’s learning environments. The results are clear: student attention is declining, traditional lecture is evolving, and active learning is taking center stage. 83.9% of educators report declining attention during passive instruction 89.9% say the traditional lecture is evolving, dying, or already gone So what’s replacing it, and how do we measure success in this new model? Join us for a live discussion on

“If students aren’t making something, they aren’t there.”

Active learning isn’t less rigorous. It’s more visible.

You see:
- How students think
- Where they struggle
- What they actually understand

That’s the conversation we’re having next 👇

We love seeing students getting involved and learning the art of video creation! Excited to watch the 2025–26 Yealey Video Club grow their skills and tell their stories with WeVideo.

Tip Tuesday: Distracting background or sensitive info in your video? Use WeVideo’s Blur tool to keep the focus on what matters most. A little blur goes a long way in keeping your viewers’ attention exactly where you want it.
