Clipchamp is a video-editing piece of software that can be used in browser and app versions while also being a built-in app on Windows 11. The free version includes basic edition tools for creating videos, trimming, splitting, compressing, and finally downloading them. Users can include transitions and animated texts, as well as screen or webcam recordings. Moreover, it has a text-to-speech converting feature. While some features can be accessed without an account, having one is essential for use. Clipchamp was developed by Clipchamp Pty Ltd and later acquired by Microsoft. Evaluation: Clipchamp can be of great use for teachers and the creation of educational materials. For example, an assignment could be creating a video on a school topic, thus requiring them to do some research and then present the results as a Clipchamp video. Watching and listening to their own videos could also help students improve their speaking and pronunciation skills. Clipchamp is user-friendly and time-saving, as it offers an intuitive interface and editing tools. While it may initially require some time to get familarised with it, only basic IT skills are required.

Cost: Free for Microsoft users.
