[Live webinar] Leveraging AI for inclusive learning
chevron_right
A great benefit of online/hybrid learning is the use of multimedia materials (documents, videos, and audios) to increase student engagement, and address diverse learning needs. Read more about the importance of student engagement↗
However, students often passively consume the audio materials assigned before class, thus coming to lectures unprepared, and teachers have to explain the content again.
Interactive Audio helps address this issue, by using social annotation to activate student interaction with the audio materials.
“As long as there are opportunities for online students to check in with one another and with the instructor, it doesn’t especially matter if their interactions happen in real time or not - as long as they happen.”
add questions or discussion threads to audio materials
Instructors upload and add in-line questions or discussion threads to specific audio timeline, and also decide which one is compulsory to answer before proceeding to the next.
Engage in the listening materials
Students listen to the audio, answer the annotated questions and prompts. They can also start a discussion and question by annotating a specific part of the audio.
access student learning analytics
Teachers track students’ performance in the activity to monitor their progress and intervene when necessary.
Add discussion points, multiple choice or open questions directly to highlighted portions of your audio file to stimulate active participation with and comprehension of the material. Optionally make certain questions compulsory to answer before proceeding, or allow students to start their own discussions too.
Include attachments in the form of documents or images to the questions to incorporate different media and provide broader context. You can even leave a voice-note to let students hear it directly from you.
Sort and filter students’ responses based on the latest activity, location, most upvotes, or most comments, identifying points to address during synchronous sessions.
Choose whether to grade students based on criteria you set, such as answering questions (correctly) or participating in discussions, then synchronize the results with your native LMS.
Follow students' progress and performance within the tool, and download the analytics spreadsheet for an even more thorough analysis.
Choose whether to prevent students from downloading or modifying the materials in accordance with your copyright policy.
