We've got some exciting news to share with you—Screencastify's Interactive Questions feature just got a whole lot better! We've been working to enhance this tool to make your teaching easier and more effective. Try adding a question, or continue reading to dive into what's new and improved.
Easily engage and assess students
We know how important it is to keep your students engaged and to assess their understanding effectively. That's why we've revamped our Interactive Questions feature to include some helpful new additions:
Short answer questions
We’ve added a new question type in addition to our existing multiple choice questions. Now, you can add short answer questions at specific timestamps on your video that students need to complete in order to continue watching. This means more ways for your students to show what they know and for you to personalize their learning experience.
Turn any video into an assignment
Adding questions is just one part of turning your videos into assignments. With these updates built to make assignment creation easier, you can now tailor your assignments exactly how you want them.
- ✅ Weight questions by setting different point values for each question—including zero points, so you can use questions for formative assessment or to keep students engaged during a video lesson
- ⏱️ Add specific due dates to assignments
- 🔄 Remove individual responses or all responses so you can reuse assignments or give students a second try at the questions
It's all about helping you save time and making things simple for you and your students.
See how the class is doing at a glance with improved analytics
Understanding how your class is doing just got easier. Our updated analytics features give you better data visualization and response sorting. Sort responses by question or student so you can quickly see whether or not the class understands a specific concept, and how each student is performing and where they might need extra support.
Simplified Grading
Grading can be a chore, we get it. That's why we've made it easier for you. Now you can:
- 📂 Sort responses by grading status
- ⚠️ Highlight past due assignments
- 📩 Export grades effortlessly as CSV files
Streamlining your grading process means more time for personalizing learning for your students.
