Ensure Understanding with LMS Video and Assessment Tools

June 1, 2009

Are you an educator looking for an effective and simple way to bring learning content alive on a learning management system  (LMS) and/or in your classroom?

Creating and incorporating videos via an LMS can transform lessons, activities and even entire courses. LMSs like Coggno offer an easy-to-use video tool for creating engaging videos.

But how can teachers and course creators avoid the passive learning behavior that videos are capable of prompting?

When creating your video, keep your students in mind. Create videos that command the attention of your students with instructions that speak directly to them. Students should watch the video waiting for instructions to take notes and answer questions.

For eLearning courses that do not meet face-to-face, checking up on students’ comprehension the learning content in the videos may be especially important.

Tests and quizzes created on Coggno’s LMS can be featured at the end of a video to ensure that students were paying attention to the material.
 
A video is an effective tool for prompting LMS students to interpret and analyze instructional material.

And why not allow students themselves to create video projects?

Create and distribute engaging learning experiences with Coggno’s Learning Management System (LMS) Online. Easy to use, robust and reasonably priced.
