Do you want to include videos in your advanced assessment? You've come to the right place!
Requirements:
Acceptable file types: mp3 (5mb max file size).
Can record directly into the assessment using Method 1 (max length is 10 minutes).
There are two methods for adding a video into an Advanced Assessment:
Method 1: Using the Simple Feature: this allows you to record live audio directly into the content of a question so that it appears along with the question. These are added using the Rich Text Toolbar, so they can appear in any question type.
Method 2: Using the Audio Player Feature: this will embed the audio into the item as stand-alone audio, not necessarily embedded into a specific question. For this method, you can only use a pre-recorded audio file or URL. These are added using the Audio Player Feature, which is found in the Features section. Please note - only audio files can be used with this option. If you want to record your own audio directly into the assessment, please use method 1.
Method 1: Using the Simple Feature
Step 1: While composing the question in the Rich Text Toolbar, select the Simple Feature icon.
Step 2: Choose Audio from the left side.
Step 3.1: If uploading an existing audio recording, select Upload Audio. Then, select the gray + icon and find the video on your device. It may take a few moments to upload; when it is finished uploading, select OK.
Step 3.2: If recording new audio, select Record Audio, then, select the microphone icon to begin recording. When you are finished, select Finish. Once you are satisfied with your recording, select OK.
Step 4: Choose which style to present the audio in (optional), or preview your audio. When you are satisfied, select OK.
Step 5: Continue adding content to the question you are building. The audio will appear as a component in the question (the audio will appear in full when you save the question).
What does "playback limit" mean? If you only want the student to play the audio a certain amount of times, you can enter a number into the Playback Limit field.
Method 2: Using the Audio Player Feature
