MiVideo: Create An IVQ (Interactive Video Quiz) in Canvas and Mediaspace

Environment

Canvas
MiVideo Mediaspace

The Video Editor provides media trim, chop, splice, and copy capabilities within Canvas and MiVideo Mediaspace. In addition, Interactive Video Quizzes (IVQs) and hotspots can be embedded into videos. See related Video Editing Tools articles for more information about this editor.

Issue

Interactive Video Quiz (IVQ) provides embedding 4 question types into a video; multiple choice, true or false, reflection point, and open answer. The reflection point pauses the video and displays text or hypertext to share with the viewers. Open-ended questions are not graded but can be used to collect opinions.

Note: An IVQ can be added to a YouTube video or a video you have uploaded into My Media.

Using IVQ with Mediaspace (does not apply to Canvas)

By default, most Mediaspaces aren't configured to support IVQ. The following steps must be taken to configure IVQ. For assistance contact the ITS-MiVideo team via the ITS Service Center.

  • Enable the Quiz module for the Mediaspace.
  • Create a quiz player and add the plugin: quiz.plugin = true.

Resolution

Note: A copy of the video is created so the original video remains unaltered. If the video has already been published in Canvas and you would like to use the IVQ instead, you will need to replace the original video with the IVQ. For instance, if the video is embedded onto a Canvas Page, you will need to edit the Page, delete the original video, and embed the IVQ. See the Publish Media in Canvas article for more details.

Navigate to the Video Editor

Only the video owner or co-editor can create an IVQ. See the Collaboration and Roles article.

Publish Quiz

  • Canvas

  • Mediaspace Channel

    • IVQ can be published in any channel like any other video, see the Publish and Share MiVideo Media Outside of Canvas article.
    • IVQ in a Mediaspace is best used to provide opportunities for self-assessment and reflection. If you need to track scores for business or academic purposes, please consider using IVQ with Canvas.
    • IVQ will record the quiz score for viewers if they have authenticated in the Mediaspace. If your Mediaspace is not behind weblogin, keep this in mind when deciding which channel to publish the quiz in. If the IVQ allows unauthenticated viewers to take the quiz, the quiz attempt is not recorded. Unauthenticated viewers will see their final quiz score but the score is not recorded. Setting a limit to the number of attempts does not apply to unauthenticated viewers.
    • Individual IVQ scores in a Mediaspace require a manual process to locate by the media owner or a co-editor. See the Interactive Video Quiz Analytics article for more information.
