Makematic Partner with Newsela for Back to School Video Refresh


We are delighted to have been able to partner with edtech powerhouse Newsela to help deliver hundreds of new educational videos as part of their back-to-school refresh.

Working closely with the team at Newsela we selected over 400 vetted videos from Makematic+ which have now been rolled out in the Newsela Social Studies content library.

With searchable transcripts and embedded quizzes, these videos can help all students access grade-level social studies concepts on U.S. History, World History, Economics, Civics, and more. And they're curated side-by-side with texts throughout Newsela Social Studies to save teachers hours of time they'd spend scouring the web for videos to add to their lessons.
