As part of our expanding educational technology toolkit, all instructors now have access to our full suite of nine FeedbackFruits tools. To help you get started, we’re highlighting two featured tools per month and exploring how they can impact the teaching and learning experience. This month, we’re focusing on two tools designed to boost engagement and encourage active learning:
Interactive Presentation: Interactive Presentation turns passive slide decks into dynamic learning experiences. Whether delivered synchronously in class or asynchronously online, instructors can add comprehension questions, polls and discussion prompts directly into their presentations. Students participate through their own devices, making it easy to check understanding in real time or foster reflection between sessions. This tool promotes active participation, even in large classes or fully online environments.
Interactive Video: Interactive Video allows you to embed questions, prompts and feedback directly into videos to enhance learner engagement. Students watch at their own pace, responding to check-ins or engaging in discussions as they go. Use it to flip your classroom, guide students through complex concepts or create a more structured video viewing experience. It’s a great way to turn passive watching into active learning.
Explore these tools today in Brightspace and see how they can support authentic, AI-resilient learning. Have you already implemented these tools in your courses? We’d love to hear from you! Reach out to us via the FeedbackFruits link in our TLS Support Portal.
