Virtual Classrooms toolIntegrated web conferencing that helps instructors engage learners in 2-way conversation over video
Embed sessions directly into courses alongside other materials
Schedule, deliver, and record live sessions right from within the LMS
Use for live discussions, office hours, video-based training, and more
TRADITIONAL ASSESSMENTS• Written responses or multiple choice• Right-or-wrong answers• May test knowledge, but often don’t
test application of skills
TRADITIONAL CLASSROOMS• Requires in-person attendance• Time constraints on feedback• Difficult to scale to include all
students in larger classes
It’s hard to effectively teach and assess many of these skills.
Video Assignments toolStructured video assessments to evaluate learners on speeches, presentations, and more
Record, upload, and grade video assessments without leaving the LMS
Allow learners to practice, record, and submit video-based assessments
Add time-stamped comments and coaching, or peer-to-peer feedback
