Cloud Poodll Recording Question

From MoodleDocs

Give students the power to record and submit audio and video responses in quizzes...
Cloud Poodll Recording Question enables students to record audio and video responses right inside Moodle's native Quiz.


After installing Cloud Poodll Recording Question, teachers are able to select "Cloud Poodll" from the list of questions when making a quiz. When answering the question, students are presented with a recorder which they use for recording their answer. The Cloud Poodll Recording Question has no dependencies. Teachers are able to choose the audio or video recorder skin that best serves their purposes, and all recordings are reliably stored in the Poodll cloud.

Please watch the Cloud Poodll Recording Question video for an overview.

About Cloud Poodll Recording Question

Cloud Poodll Recording Question makes collecting, storing, and playing student audio and video question responses effortless. Although the Moodle essay question permits file submissions (including audio and video) from students, there are a number of practical considerations. Without a built-in recorder, it may be unclear to students how to record and upload. Files may be submitted in formats that the teacher cannot open without downloading additional software. Some formats produce very large files that exceed course or site upload limits. All of these issues are avoided when using Cloud Poodll Recording Question. Recorders appear right on the page, and Poodll handles recording, storage, transcoding, and playback to ensure that students and teachers do not encounter technical issues.

Use Cases


Assessing Student Speaking

Without audio or video recording, it's often impractical for teachers to evaluate a student's oral responses. Recorded audio and video questions allow asynchronous assessment of student speaking, allowing teachers to preserve valuable instruction time. Cloud Poodll Recording Question is perfect for remote learning contexts in which learners lack the opportunity to demonstrate speaking skills in a shared physical space.

Speaking Practice

In language learning contexts, teachers are always searching for new opportunities to get their students speaking. Recording questions give language learners the opportunity to practice basic skills such as self-introductions or provide oral responses to prompts prepared by the teacher. Recording questions provide an open response format for students to express themselves to the best of their abilities.
