With the Video Recorder question, students can record a video response to a question.

Note that this question is not enabled by default - you will need to contact ADAM Support to enable this Question type.

Figure 1: Example of the Video Recorder Question

After you have entered your stimulus in the Compose question field, there are some minor configuration settings to go over.

  • Maximum length (seconds): refers to the maximum length the video can be - when the student reaches this limit, the video will stop recording automatically. This value is set to 600 seconds by default
  • Overwrite warning: enabled by default, this will warn the student when they are about to overwrite their previous video recording wth a new one.
  • Max score: the maximum score that can be awarded for the Question, as this Question is not auto-graded.
  • Minimum score if attempted: attempt marks awarded to the student, regardless of a correct/incorrect response.
  • Font size: change the font size - this applies to both the stimulus, but also the text on the video recorder.
  • Details: see Understanding Metadata page for a thorough explanation of these fields.
