Hello! How can I make the video content in the Modules section mandatory to watch in full without allowing skipping?
Hi @DanielleTiongso ...
By chance, has your school purchased Canvas Studio? (You would see a "Studio" icon on the far left-hand global navigation menu of your Canvas environment.) Studio has a feature that allows instructors to see how much of a video a student has watched. So, while Studio doesn't prevent students from skipping parts of the video, you still would be able to see if and when students are skipping over parts. Studio is a paid add-on product from Instructure (the folks that make Canvas).
I believe that Kaltura (a third-party add-on to Canvas) also has a similar feature. I'm not sure if your school has purchased Kaltura or not, but that might be worth checking out as well.
Sorry I don't have a direct answer for you, but I hope this helps to answer your question in some way.
Hey @DanielleTiongso!
The unfortunate reality is even if there is a way to require watching the full video, it doesn't mean that students are going to watch it. They can just as easily start a video, walk away, and come back once the video is over. While @Chris_Hofer has a great idea about the insights in Studio, have you considered using the Stimulus option in New Quizzes? You can add the video you want students to watch as the stimulus part of the question. Then add as many questions as you would like that can only be answered by watching the video. Since the video would be the stimulus, it would be on the screen the entire time while the questions could be scrolled through as needed.
How do I insert stimulus content in New Quizzes?
This method is not perfect either since students could share answers, but it may encourage a few more students watch the video, especially if there was a grade associated with watching the video. (If you do not want the quiz to count as a grade, you can always set it for 0 points in the editing window.)
Just a thought.
Yesterday, after much trial and error…I concluded the new quizzes matching choice options do not work as I expected, and have used with other LMS. I thought that I could provide students a matching choice quiz with multiple attempts that would report incorrectly answered matches on the first attempt, and display the…
I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
