○ Set up a video hand-in assignment
Scenarios
- You would like to give learners the possibility to record a video and hand it in to the instructor.
- You would like to have learners record a video that other learners can give feedback to.
The recording feature only works in Chrome, Firefox and Edge. Besides that the environment needs to work with a valid SSL certificate.
Which role do you need?
Designer
Click the Templates tab and click Edit. Under the Template tab you can create a new activity with +Activity. Then choose Video hand-in assignment.
1) Fill in the assignment description
If you are going to use the assignment in multiple templates, it's best to put the description in a content part and select that.
Otherwise choose Text editor.
2) Add supporting files (optional)
These can be documents to support the learner with the assignment.
3) Add information that the learner consult during recording
For example a checklist with tips for the learner to pay attention to while recording, or the objectives needed to complete the assignment.
Here you can also choose to reuse text by making a content part, or you can add text directly in the text editor.
4) Set the default settings
See the article Add hand-in assignment, because these settings are almost the same.
No hand-in button while testing
You will not see the hand-in button while testing the video hand-in assignment. This button is only visible to subscribed learners. You can see an example of the screen of a learner in the example below.
After clicking Record or upload video, the learner will see a popup in which the recording can be started, if the device they're using has a recording feature.
The learner can also select a previously recorded video file by clicking the Select file button. Now the learner can select and upload a video and hand this in.
Once a video has been recorded, it can still be deleted. Once the learner clicks Hand in, it is definite and other learners can give feedback and/or the instructor can assess the video, depending on the settings.
Learners can directly record a video on their phone or computer but they can also upload a previously recorded video that is saved on their computer or phone/tablet.
