Why is there no Edpuzzle answer key for students?
Because the key sits with the teacher who built the lesson. Edpuzzle says a teacher makes a lesson by taking a video and “embedding questions in the video.” Its help describes how each kind of question is graded:
| Question type | Who sets the answer | What Edpuzzle says |
|---|---|---|
| Multiple choice | The teacher | “Here you can select which answers are correct and incorrect.” These “are graded automatically.” |
| Open-ended | No fixed answer | “not automatically graded since each student’s answer will differ.” The teacher grades them, or uses Autograde. |
| Autograde | The teacher’s “ideal answer” | Responses “will automatically be compared to the ideal answer and then graded as correct (100 points) or incorrect (0 points).” |
| Polls and reflections | None | Polls gather feedback “without needing to assign a grade.” Reflections: “No grading involved!” |
Teachers write or edit the questions for their own lesson, so a list of “Edpuzzle answers” for a video you found online may belong to a different lesson built on the same video. That is our inference from how Edpuzzle says lessons are made.
When does Edpuzzle show you the correct answers?
On your last attempt. Edpuzzle’s help on attempts says:
“Students will not see an indication of which multiple-choice answer options are correct unless they are on their last attempt. If you have set only one attempt, that one attempt will count as their last.”
With more than one attempt, students can “go back and redo any questions they’ve answered incorrectly” by clicking Retry, and can “either rewatch the entire video or skip ahead to questions they’ve answered incorrectly.” Edpuzzle will “only save the responses from students’ final attempts.” Teachers can also add feedback, a message that “will automatically appear after students submit a question,” including feedback for each multiple-choice answer.
Can teachers see your Edpuzzle answers?
Yes, every one. Clicking a student’s name gives the teacher “a full report of your student’s progress and answers.” The assignment’s Questions tab shows “how many students answered correctly,” and a teacher can “click on a question to see which students got it right or wrong.” Open-ended responses wait under “Answers to grade” until the teacher grades them or runs Autograde.
What does Edpuzzle record while you watch?
Your answers, and how you watched. From Edpuzzle Help:
| What is recorded | What Edpuzzle says | Source |
|---|---|---|
| How much you watched | “How much every student has watched of the video, when they were last watching the video, and when they turned in the assignment.” | Accountability |
| Time spent | “Total time spent” “shows how much time each student spent watching the videos.” | Gradebook |
| Attempts | “Attempts: This shows how many attempts your students took before completing the assignment.” | Real-time progress |
| Late work | A late completion shows “a red clock icon next to that grade.” | Gradebook |
| Switching tabs | “The video will automatically pause until they go back to the Edpuzzle tab.” | Accountability |
| Skipping ahead | With Prevent Skipping on, students “can go back to where they last left off but no further.” | Accountability |
| Unusual activity | Supported Assignments include “a built-in cheating-detection system,” optional copy and paste blocking, and “a simple flag” for “potential irregularities.” | Supported Assignments |
Put simply, a teacher can see what you answered, how much of the video you watched and when you turned it in.
How can you get honest help with an Edpuzzle?
- Rewatch the part before the question. Edpuzzle’s Gradebook help says “We strongly recommend encouraging your students to rewatch certain parts of the video before responding to a question.”
- Read the feedback your teacher attached to a question after you submit it.
- Use your retries. If your teacher allows more than one attempt, Retry lets you redo the multiple-choice questions you missed.
- Take a break if you need to. Edpuzzle saves your progress so you “can pick up right where you left off each time you return.”
- Ask your teacher for another go. After you submit, a teacher can choose “Make student retry.”
- Seeing “This video assignment is playing live on the projector screen”? That is Live Mode, explained in Edpuzzle Live Mode: what the projector message means.
Where Silent Student fits
We make Silent Student, a desktop app for Mac and Windows from El Dorado Ignition LLC. It has no Edpuzzle answer key and doesn’t make one. It is not a bookmarklet or script that pulls answers out of Edpuzzle or skips the video. On Edpuzzle it uses its general vision agent, not a solver written for Edpuzzle: it opens the assignment from your Canvas course, plays the video at normal speed and answers each question when the video stops, multiple choice by matching the option text and open-ended with a short typed answer.
- Everything it enters is saved under your name as your answer, and Edpuzzle records the viewing as yours. It does not skip, speed up or hide anything, and it does not work around Edpuzzle’s cheating detection.
- Open-ended answers are written from what the video showed and graded by your teacher, so read them first. It does not join Live Mode, and Google Classroom isn’t supported.
- It is built for college Canvas courses, and Silent Student accounts are for ages 13 and up. If you are in a K-12 class, check your school’s rules on AI tools first.
- We have published no Edpuzzle run, so we publish no Edpuzzle accuracy figure, and its answers can be wrong. Plans are $11.99, $24.99 or $49.99 a month, with no free plan. It runs on a Mac with Apple Silicon (macOS 13 or later) or a 64-bit PC on Windows 10 or later.
Edpuzzle’s Terms. Edpuzzle’s Terms of Service, last updated July 6, 2026, say: “You will not collect users’ content or information, or otherwise access the Service, using automated means (such as harvesting bots, robots, spiders, or scrapers) without our prior permission.” They also say Edpuzzle may suspend a service “if, for example, you do not comply with the Agreement or if we are investigating suspected misconduct.” In our reading, the automated-means clause reaches Silent Student. We are not lawyers, so read the Terms yourself. Your school’s academic-integrity policy applies too, and under Silent Student’s Terms (section 5) you are responsible for both.

Questions people ask
Can you see Edpuzzle answers before you submit?
No. Edpuzzle says students won’t see which multiple-choice options are correct “unless they are on their last attempt,” and a single attempt counts as the last.
Is there an Edpuzzle answer key for teachers?
Teachers set it themselves. When building a lesson, a teacher selects which multiple-choice answers are correct, and for Autograde they type an ideal answer that open-ended responses are compared with.
Can teachers see your Edpuzzle answers?
Yes. Clicking a student’s name shows the teacher “a full report of your student’s progress and answers,” along with how much of the video you watched and when you turned it in.
Does Edpuzzle know if you skip ahead or switch tabs?
The video pauses when you switch tabs “until they go back to the Edpuzzle tab,” and with Prevent Skipping on you can go back only to where you left off. Teachers see how much of each video you watched.
How are open-ended Edpuzzle answers graded?
By your teacher, or with Autograde, which compares your response with the teacher’s ideal answer and marks it “correct (100 points) or incorrect (0 points).”
Does Silent Student give you Edpuzzle answers?
No. It has no Edpuzzle answer key. It plays the video at normal speed in your account and answers each question as it appears, and Edpuzzle records those answers as yours. Edpuzzle’s Terms bar automated access without permission, so read them first.

How this guide was made. We read each Edpuzzle page listed above on October 20, 2026 and quote them directly. The point that an answer list found online may belong to a different lesson is our inference from how Edpuzzle says lessons are built.
