How do I create an in-video quiz?

You can create a quiz from any video you have uploaded to My Media or the Media Gallery in any of your UVACollab sites. These instructions describe creating a quiz in your site's Media Gallery.

For more information about video quizzes, see What is an in-video quiz, and how can I use it?

Select Media Gallery from the Tool Menu of the site.

Access the Media tab.

If any playlists have been created in the site, the Playlists tab will display as the first page of the Media Gallery.  If this is the case, select the Media tab to go to it.

Note: The Media tab will display with the number of files currently included in it, e.g., 3 Media.

Select + Add Media.

Note: On mobile devices or small screens, the Add Media button displays as a plus (+) icon.

Select Add New, then Video Quiz.

On the Add Media page:

  1. Select Add New.
  2. Select Video Quiz.

Upload or select a video.

A list of all your media will be displayed.  Either:

  1. Use the + Upload Media button to upload a new video,
  2. Or choose the video for the quiz using the Select > button.

Tips:

  • You can use the Search box above the list of media to find a video.
  • By default, media you own will be displayed. To view media that has been shared with you, select View Media I Own, then select Media I Can Edit.

Edit quiz settings. (Optional)

The quiz editor will display. You can edit settings such as the quiz title and welcome message, scoring options, and whether students can change their answers or skip questions.

Details

By default, the quiz will have the name of the original video, followed by - Quiz. To edit the name or welcome message for the quiz, select the Details tab.

Note: For accessibility, it is recommended to leave the default setting Allow Download of Question List selected. Some students with disabilities may need to download the questions to be able to read and answer them.

Scores

By default, after a student submits the quiz, their score and the correct/incorrect answers to questions are shown. To change these settings, select the Scores tab.

Experience

By default, students can change their answers before submitting the quiz, skip questions, and navigate the video past the questions. To change these settings, select the Experience tab.
