Revolutionizing Learning: How Educators Leverage Pictory AI to Boost Student Engagement

TikTok and other platforms have shortened many students’ attention spans, with educators struggling to engage them in the classroom.  As a result, some teachers have found that traditional classroom teaching methods are no longer working for many school-age and college kids who have grown up getting their information from a screen. 

 

Savvy schoolteachers and professors realize that students respond better to lessons delivered in the same way as they consume information outside the classroom. They’re turning to Pictory, the easy-to-use AI video creation platform, to transform their teaching methods and are seeing student engagement increase exponentially with teachers reporting students are more captivated than ever before

Dr. Carolyn, Professor at Barry University’s School of Social Work:

 

Dr. Carolyn, an experienced professor, grappled with similar issues. She was struggling to get complex concepts to stick with her students, she only had 90 minutes for a lecture, not enough time to deliver dense and detailed information to masters and doctoral students. 

 

She wanted to find an innovative way to connect with outside the lecture hall in ways they could relate to and that didn’t require complicated technical knowledge on her part. 

 

With Pictory, Dr. Carolyn effortlessly converted her lecture materials into emotionally resonant videos.”I can put together a video in just 5 to 8 minutes”.

 

It was a game-changer for her. Dr Carolyn saw a remarkable 500% increase in student engagement, her students not only understood the material better but also retained it longer. “It keeps them alive… it sets a tone… it creates this emotional tone”, she says.
