Kaltura has integrated an Interactive Video Quizzing tool into its platform, allowing content creators to define questions and responses that appear at designated points in a video experience.



Available immediately, the free tool will be included in all existing and future Kaltura MediaSpace and Kaltura Application Framework-based products, which include Kaltura’s LMS integrations.

Kaltura's Interactive Video Quizzing tool can serve as a survey tool to poll viewers and a method to assess video quality. The feature will also allow educational institutions, corporate training teams, and anyone else using videos for learning and training to add interactive quizzes to Kaltura video workflows for the purpose of enhancing feedback and assessment during video-based learning.

The flexible tool lets the content creator decide whether the quiz is graded or ungraded, whether the correct answers and score are revealed to viewers, and whether there are hints available. Kaltura’s existing reporting tools allow instructors to see how viewers responded to each question, individually and in aggregate.

“We’re thrilled to be able to offer our users this new functionality, which allows them to make their videos far more engaging and valuable to the instructional process, all in a fully integrated workflow that is unique in the market,” said Ron Yekutiel, chairman and CEO, Kaltura. “Kaltura continues to innovate in the online learning space, allowing our customers to keep pace with the expectations of the YouTube generation, and leverage video to further improve the learning experience.”
