Create Questions Requiring Audio, Video or Drawn Response

Overview

You can now create questions that incorporate a brief recorded audio, video or a drawn image response using the Poodll Recording question type. The recorders or whiteboard are embedded within the questions and students’ answers are saved within your course or available for download. Adding a background to the whiteboard in a Picture response allows you to create questions such as identifying locations on a map, graphing charts, etc. Poodll questions are graded manually.
