Late last year I featured the collection of over thirty activity templates for book widgets that can be used in Google Classroom. This week BookWidgets added a new useful widget simply called Video Quiz.
As the name suggests, the Video Quiz Widget in BookWidgets allows you to create a video-based quiz to use directly in BookWidgets or distribute through your favorite LMS, including Google Classroom. With the Video Quiz widget in BookWidgets, you can use your own videos or videos you’ve found on YouTube to create video-based lessons and quizzes.
When you use the Video Quiz widget in BookWidgets, you can add questions and comments directly to a video’s timeline. For example, if you want to make a clarifying comment 32 seconds into a video, you can. And if you want to pose a reflection question to your students three minutes into a video, you can. In fact, you can use any of the dozens of BookWidgets question types in the video quiz widget. In other words, you’re not limited to asking multiple-choice and short-answer questions like you are with other video lesson creation tools.
Later this week I will be posting my own BookWidget video test tutorial on my YouTube channel. Until then, take a look at this tutorial from Lucie on BookWidgets for more information on how it works.
