ESLBrains.com Tips About Creating Interactive Video Quizzes
Our friends at ESLBrains.com, a site with hundred of quality lesson plans for Youtube videos, keep churning out great content. This time they penned a short piece about how to create interactive video quizzes.
First, they lay their case that we should be moving forward with the new trends and focus more on videos in our classes. They argue that our primary mode of consuming information is no longer the written text but the moving image. Also, videos are authentic and motivating. But maybe you already know that, and you already bring your Youtube video to class on a regular basis.
So what’s next for you to take video-based teaching to the next level?
Stan and Justa think it’s making students’ connect with the videos in an interactive way. Check out their post and learn about their best practices through concrete lesson examples.
NEW: Zero gap in gapfill questions
We have a brand new feature: the zero gap. It's great for activities like articles vs zero article (=a missing article, for example for general concepts: e.g. chocolate and NOT: the chocolate); the alternative omission of a relative clause (e.g. the cat [that] I saw) or personal pronoun (He ate and [he] slept).
In the quiz students just hit ENTER to submit a "zero" answer, e.g. ___ chocolate is sweet (no article needed). You can create a zero gap in the quiz maker by clicking on a space before a word in a gapfill type question.
Watch Jen Brummer demo the zero gap to you in 2 minutes.
