Using Panopto Video Quizzes

This article will walk you through using a Panopto Video Quiz inside of Brightspace. This will allow you to automatically import the quiz grade from Panopto and use the quiz grade with things like Release Conditions.

Note for Brightspace Administrators: You must be logged in with your KVCC account to access Panopto.


Accessing Panopto

If this is your first time accessing Panopto, follow these steps to gain access:

  1. Navigate to the course you’d like to add the video quiz to in Brightspace

  2. Create a new module that is hidden from students (or use an existing hidden module if available)

  4. Select Panopto Videos from the dialog box

  5. Click on the new Panopto Videos topic that was created, you should be brought to Panopto where you can record, upload, and edit videos.

Using Release Conditions With the Video Quiz

You may wish to use release conditions to hide another topic until the learner has watched the entire video or completed the quiz.

There does not seem to be a way to ensure 100% watch time with Panopto, the best I have found so far is to add a quiz around 5 seconds before the video ends. Students will still be able to skip forward in the video until each quiz though.

I recommend a 5 second gap before the end of the video as sometimes Panopto’s edit page reports video runtime that doesn’t match the actual video.

For example Panopto said a video is 4 minutes and 22 seconds long on the edit page, but when viewed by a student it was only 4 minutes and 19 seconds long, so a quiz placed at 4 minutes and 21 seconds wasn’t accessible to the student.

  1. Select the topic to be hidden until the quiz is completed (or edit its properties in place)

  2. Click on Add dates and restrictions…

  3. Click on Create, under Release Conditions

    1.  

  4. Select Grade value on a grade item under Condition Type

  5. Select the quiz under Grade Item

  6. Set the grade criteria in the appropriate boxes

  7. Click the blue Create button

    1.  

  8. Click the blue Update button

    1.  

  9. Done! Now when a student submits the quiz in Panopto, their grade will be imported to Brightspace in the grade item you selected, and if that grade meets your criteria they will unlock access to the topic with release conditions set.
