Videogular Questions

Created by GDP Group 12.

What is our project?

We are creating software that aims to:

  • Make, view and analyse quizzes and polls in videos
  • Be accessible
  • Be a research tool for education styles
  • Be easily integrated into the new version of Synote
  • Authoring tool for creating quizzes
  • Videogular player for showing quizzes and videos
  • Analytics for research
  • Accessibility contributions to an open source project

Synote

  • Shows videos, transcripts, presentation slides and annotations
  • All synchronized in playback

Why?

  • A new version of Synote is planned
  • New opportunities for Synote
    • After lecture review
    • Live in Lectures
    • MOOC's
This project is in preperation for the upcoming rewrite of Synote. The next version of Synote is planned to use AngularJS, so we are implementing the core functionality as a plugin to an existing project that provides an AngularJS wrapper around HTML5 videos. Adding quizes in to videos could provide an innovitive way to revise content from a lecture. If the user gives the incorrect answer, it can suggest to skip back to the relevant part of the video, avoiding the user rewatching the video from the start, or hopping around trying to find the relevant part. As an aditional learning activity, the students could collaberate around Synote to create the quiz content. Polls could be used within lectures in a live manor to make the lecture more interactive, perhaps asking about understanding, or getting other information about the people in the lecture. After the lecture, the polls could continue, such that those not at the lecutre could interact in a similar manor, or the poll could become static and just show the results from the lecture. Both of these examples would fit in well to a MOOC's, which Synote could be used to provide.
