Kaltura Video Quiz

What is a Kaltura Video Quiz?

Kaltura Interactive Video Quizzing (IVQ) makes it possible to add different types of questions using a pre-existing video. A question can be added at any time in a video using a user-friendly Quiz Editor.

While a student is watching your video, your questions will be shown at the points in time you selected by you. Once the questions are answered, the video will resume playing, until the next question appears.

A number of settings allow you to choose whether your students can:

• repeat sections of the video;

• skip questions;

• revise answers;

• have the correct answer shown.

It is also possible to provide students , if needed, with hints and / or feedback on the correct answers.

When using a Video Quiz in Canvas, the students' scores on the Quiz can also be shown in the Gradebook of the Canvas course. For more info, see below: How do I turn a Video Quiz into an Assignment in Canvas?
