Video Quiz Maker for Educators

Video Quiz Maker for Educators

iSLCollective video quiz maker - https://en.islcollective.com/video-lessons/ - is an excellent tool for creating interactive video quizzes.

iSLCollective has recently introduced a number of interesting new features to enhance the video lessons experience.


One especially useful feature is the ability to assign video quizzes as assignments/homework/coursework etc.


To learn more about how to easily assign quizzes as homework etc., watch the video clip at https://www.youtube.com/embed/C1Jd_QwYQBM

For those of you who are not familiar with this tool,  iSLCollective video quiz maker is a 'free web-based tool that allows educators to create interactive video quizzes around YouTube and Vimeo videos.

How does it work?
  • Educators choose videos from YouTube or Vimeo. 
  • Next they write questions that will pop up throughout the video.
They can also add...
  • a lesson plan,
  • vocabulary list, and
  • discussion questions.
There is also an option for educators to search for already-made video quizzes in the iSLCollective library. These quiz questions can be tailored to meet the needs of their learners'.

Once the video quiz is ready, click on ‘publish’ and provide data about the video such as...
  • title,
  • a summary,
  • lesson type,
  • level, etc.
Video quizzes created through iSLCollective provide different ‘play mode’ options. Learners can...
  • watch the video without quiz,
  • play video quiz in interactive mode,
  • use the Casino game mode, or
  • play it in non-interactive mode.
There are several reasons why educators would want to try out iSLCollective in their Learning Environment:
  • These quizzes allow educators to put their focus on their learners during class, rather than handling the video. 
  • This tool gives them a break from keeping track of video pauses, printing the questions beforehand, etc. 
  • In addition, the interactivity and gamification adds playfulness to video work - with various play modes (e.g. the classic Casino game where you bet on the right answer) and features like the tapping game where students tap on objects seen in the paused video screen. It’s a great homework tool as well!.
