Create Interactive Video

Instructors can create interactive video by adding quiz questions to existing Panopto videos. Each quiz segment can contain one or more questions and can be configured to suit the required engagement activity.

When a student watches a video, the quiz question will automatically show on the screen at the point where they were inserted. Depending on the chosen quiz questions, students need to answer the question(s) to continue watching the video or can continue without providing an answer.
