Engaging students at a distance and in the classroom can present challenges. Poll Everywhere offers a way to interact with your students with activities designed to ask questions, drive participation in group activities, and encourage students to share thoughts and insights from their phones or computers.

If you want to increase student engagement and personalize feedback within your Shark Media videos, the Annoto Widget workshop was created just for you. The Annoto widget is a tool that integrates with Shark Media and can be used in Canvas enabling you to add interactive elements to your videos. You can use it to create questions, quizzes, surveys, polls, and discussions that appear on the video timeline. You and your students can also use it to annotate your videos with highlights, notes, links, and images.

Videos are often the most highly engaging media in a course. Videos can be used to introduce new course content, reinforce concepts already learned, share demonstrations, simulations, and much more. You may know that NSU has a media server called Shark Media which is our branded version of Kaltura. During this workshop, we will review the many capabilities of the Shark Media platform. We will show you where you can find every function on the platform, from uploading videos, all the way to creating chapter markers and playlists for your students.
