What is best basic video editing app for Mac

Question

I'm looking for a video editing application for the mac. I only require something basic, as in being able to crop out unwanted footage and join multiple movie files then export to MP4 format.
I don't need to add audio, titiles or make colour adjustments etc.
Tried iMovie but not a fan.

It sounds like the real need here is for an online collaboration solution, not necessarily building a website from scratch. It would be best to find a service that already does what you want, have a multi-user discussion board that supports multiple groups. Blackboard Learn looks like it integrates grading, evaluations, tests, multimedia, etc., so if the actual scope of your project is like that, maybe Blackboard Learn is the way to go. But is it too much?
If you are merely looking for a space where groups of students can merely discuss privately and not much else, you could conceivably go with something like Facebook Groups, Google+ Communities, etc. These are already coded and tested across multiple platforms and reinforced for security.
You could simply "get a website program" like iWeb or RapidWeaver, but the serious disadvantage of these programs is that you have to build it from nothing. You code the logins, you code the discussion group architecture, you make it work with laptops, tablets, and phones, you code it against hackers and mischievous students. Unless you can handle that (and maybe you did back with iWeb), it might be better to go with a ready-made "groupware" solution that is already tested and robust.
