Step-by-Step Instructions

Create Interactive Video

Select the ‘+’ icon at the bottom right corner of the page and then select the ‘video quiz’ icon to ‘Create interactive video assignment.’


  • 1 - The Create Interactive Video Assignment panel opens. Give your activity a name.

Select a method to add a video. Select RECORD VIDEO to record a webcam or screenshare video. Select UPLOAD VIDEO to use a previously-recorded video. (Ignore the ‘SELECT FROM RESOURCES’ option.)

Follow the on-screen prompts to record or upload your video.

After adding the video, you will see a “video is processing message.” You can add questions for the video when it is finished processing.

  • 7 - Select OK when you are ready.

  • 8 - Repeat steps 2 through 7 for each question in the activity. (You can add up to 20 questions.)

  • 10 - Select the SHOW ADVANCED button.


  • 11 - Select the Deep Linking toggle to enable it.

Step 3: Map Activity to a Resource


Your activity is all set up, but there's one last step. You need to map it to a resource so your learners will be able to see and access it. In this step you’ll create a resource instance for the activity.
