Wizer, as described by the creators to edtopia, is a “digital worksheet” tool. But that definition comes with certain connotations that this tool does not warrant. This company, based out of Israel, is providing the ability for teachers to collaborate and design worksheets that are tailored to every subject and language imaginable. These worksheets can have video, audio and images added to them in order to make it more interesting and fun for the students to study and learn. Students can also be put into groups where they can all work on the same sheet. These worksheets are also able to be auto-graded for the benefit of the teachers giving them out.

What Exactly is Wizer?
While Wizer is a pretty simple tool to understand, it helps teachers build and share worksheets, it can be easily misunderstood or put into too broad of terms. While there are the basic question-answer parts there are also more interactive components for the students. Such as annotations, not only on blocks of text, on videos and Images. Wizer is also a space that allows teachers to share and learn form other teachers across the globe. From Arabic to Russian, English to Mandarin and nearly everything in-between teachers are able to teach language and culture as taught from those places.
There is even a section for students to give feedback, either through text or voice submissions, which allows for students and teachers to collaborate on how to give the best learning experience.
