“I can really narrow down - you’ll have two or three minute videos, which is all I want. I don’t want a 20-minute video. I want those shorter videos to either support my direct teaching or to introduce my lesson. Another advantage of ClickView is that it can be interactive and ask questions, and I very much like that.”

ClickView and Discovery Education at a glance

High-quality K-12 content

ClickView offers teacher-approved, high-quality videos specifically created for K-12 lessons. Discovery Education provides a vast collection of professionally produced educational videos (including Sesame Street and Shark Week) covering all grade levels.

Curated, standards-aligned

All ClickView videos are curated by teachers and aligned to curriculum standards for each subject and grade. Discovery Education's extensive library is also standards-aligned and includes many ESSA Level IV-approved resources, offering a broad platform of content.

Safe, age-appropriate content

ClickView emphasizes safe, age-appropriate content: it's ad-free and all videos are handpicked and curated by educators. Discovery Education also offers age-appropriate educational content, however it's a larger content library for teachers to filter and find the content they're after.

Video segmentation & pacing

ClickView's library is built around short, segmented videos that fit neatly into lesson pacing. Videos on ClickView can be clipped to the perfect length for your class. Discovery Education includes many longer segments and full-program videos; teachers may have to pause or skip parts to match their pacing.

Interactive videos

Every video on ClickView comes with pre-made interactive video quizzes to engage and assess students. Discovery Education also includes interactive elements (like quizzes and virtual labs), but these are not as seamlessly integrated into every video.

Interactive video analytics

ClickView provides real-time analytics on student engagement and quiz performance for each interactive video. Discovery Education has a teacher dashboard to track student progress and content usage, but detailed analytics often need additional setup.

Access and equity

ClickView is accessible from any device and uses straightforward per-student pricing, making it affordable even for smaller schools. Discovery Education also supports broad device access and LMS single sign-on but tends to be more expensive.

LMS integrations

ClickView integrates with major LMS platforms like Google Classroom and Canvas, supporting Single Sign-On to fit into existing workflows. Discovery Education also offers deep LMS and SSO integrations (Canvas, Clever, Microsoft, etc.).

Why choose ClickView over Discovery Education?

ClickView's platform was designed to address the very limitations that schools face with larger systems.

For teachers

  • Short, educational content: ClickView saves you time and keeps students focused. Its library of short, highly engaging videos (most under 10 minutes) can be searched by subject, standards code or grade level.
  • Built-in interactivity: Every video comes with ready-made interactive quizzes and a variety of question types, so you can easily check understanding and reinforce learning without leaving the lesson flow.
  • Target your teaching: You also see real-time student results, letting you pinpoint who needs extra help.
  • Simple user experience: ClickView's interface is built for busy teachers: you can find the right video in seconds, create clips, and share with one click.
  • Safe, age-appropriate: ClickView's content is fully vetted (ad-free and compliant), so you can confidently let students watch in class or at home.

For librarians and IT

  • Safe & secure: ClickView is a turnkey video solution that's easy to deploy and manage. All content is copyright-cleared for education use, and all physical and analytics data in stored in onshore data centers in the US.
  • Full control: ClickView provides administrators with all the tools to manage libraries and content effectively. You can filter or restrict any video by grade or content rating.
  • Seamless integrations: ClickView integrates with existing systems – SSO and LMS integrations mean students log in with their school accounts. Local cache ensures smooth playback even on limited bandwidth.

For school and district leaders

  • Transparent pricing: ClickView delivers excellent value and equity. We offer a per student pricing model which means you can roll it out to your whole district without any hidden costs. With ClickView, there's no need to choose between departments - all staff and students within your school or district can have full access.
  • District analytics: District-wide analytics give leadership an overview of usage within schools, subject area, topics and grade levels. Make data-driven decisions with reporting to measure growth, identify positive trends and understand the impact video is having in your schools.
  • Accessibility: ClickView's commitment to access and inclusion ensures no student is left behind – features like captions, transcripts, screen reader compatibility, Immersive Reader, and text-to-speech support all learners.

TL;DR

ClickView is a comprehensive K-12 video learning platform with over 12,000 standards-aligned, teacher-vetted videos, printable worksheets, built-in interactive quizzes, and real-time student analytics in an intuitive, ad-free interface. Discovery Education offers an even broader array of quality, standards-aligned content and deep LMS integrations, but its platform has a steeper learning curve.

Importantly, ClickView's district library and restrictions lets you serve all students, not just those in high-budget districts.

When you choose ClickView, you get a powerful video platform and the assurance that no learner or school is left out – the very best of curriculum and accessibility, together.
