How do I let learners create their own interactive videos?

What is a learner made interactive video?

Learner made interactive video assignments allow learners to access the interactive video editor to create their own interactive videos. Learners have access to the full power of the interactive video editor, including choosing their own videos and embedding all question types in their interactive videos. Instructors can use this feature to:

• Have learners review the class material and create interactive videos to demonstrate their learning outcomes.
• Have learners create their own videos and add interactions to increase engagement.
• Have learners record their presentation and have them reflect on their performance with comments.

Create a learner made interactive video

Click the white arrow next to the Create New Interactive Video button, and select Create Learner Made Interactive Video.

Enter the title and learning objectives/instructions for this learner made interactive video assignment. The learning objective/instructions will be displayed to learners when they launch the assignment.

To adjust the settings for the learner made interactive video, click the Advanced Settings to expand the settings menu. Instructors can adjust the following settings with the learner made interactive video.

• Points: The points assigned to this assignment. The points can be from 10 to 100.

• Allow learners to upload video files: Enable learners to upload their own video files to WeVideo Interactivity to create their own interactive videos. Please note that the uploaded videos will consume the storage space in the institution's license.

• Enable peer review: Allow learners to review and grade the interactive videos created by their peers.

• Enable complete/incomplete grading: If complete/incomplete grading is enabled, learners will receive full credit when they submit their interactive videos, and instructors can adjust the points from the monitor page. If this option is not selected, learners will not receive points until their submissions are reviewed by the instructor.

After entering the information and adjusting the settings for the learner made interactive video assignment, click the Create button to complete the creation process.

Assign learner made interactive videos to classes

To assign the learner made interactive video to classes, click the thumbnail image or the Actions buttons of the learner made interactive video, and select Assign.

Select the assign preferences for the learner made interactive video assignment. There are four different options:

• Assign to learners: Users with either a teacher or student account can access and complete this assignment.
• Assign to professional learning (deprecated): Professional learning assignments have moved! Now, instructors no longer need to choose whether the assignment is for students or teachers; the same link will work for both groups. To assign interactive video as a professional learning assignment, please select the first option. Please see this article for more information about professional learning in Interactivity.
• Assign to people outside the organization: Anyone can access this assignment using the link. Before starting the interactive video, users will be asked to enter their first and last names. This option is available for users with the district plan.
• Assign to anonymous participants: Anyone can access this assignment using the link. No user information is needed to begin the interactive video. This option is available for users with the district plan.

Set the start and end dates for this assignment. The assignment will appear in the class after the start date, and the interactive video link will not work until then. The end date is the due date for the assignment, and the assignment will be locked afterward. If no end date is assigned, the interactive video will always be available to learners.

Select the classes you want to assign the learner made interactive video to and click Assign on the top right of the window.

Copy the interactive video link and share it with learners. Click Done to close the window and go back to Interactivity.

If you need to acquire the interactive video link again in the future, please click on the thumbnail image or the Actions button and select Share Link to view the interactive video link.
