Create Interactive Videos for Students with Zaption!
Zaption is a wonderful web app that allows teachers and students to turn videos into a complete, interactive experience! Add images, text, quizzes and discussions to private videos as well as those from YouTube and Vimeo to create a “learning tour.”
I love the possibilities this brings to the classroom and to staff development! We all know that no matter how engaging the video is (or we think it is) there is no guarantee of engagement. Using the Zaption tools, we can build in checks for understanding, and even some discussion and collaboration along the way. Perfect for flipping the classroom!
Here's a great example from the Zaption Gallery (Zaption calls these "tours"):
Zaption is a freemium app, but if you want a peak at the Zaption Pro features, here is a FREE PROMO CODE (good for 30 days!).
