Tech Tidbit: Zaption
What is it?
Zaption is an online tool that allows you quickyl to add images, text, quizzes, and discussions to existing videos from places like YouTube or Vimeo. According to their website, the tools allows you to transform videos from "lean back" activities to "lean forward" activities.
The video can be viewed as a whole class, stopping together to discuss, it can be viewed on a student's own time, or you can use Zaption Presenter, a new feature that allows you to actually collect information in realtime from stduents. They use a mobile device to login to the video with a provided code.
