By adding multiple choice, true false, or free response questions, instructors can encourage students to pay close attention to what they’re watching, rather than tuning out or drifting away. EDpuzzle has tools to prevent skipping around in the video, requiring it to be watched all the way to the end. Students can skip back to any point during the video that they’ve already viewed in order to review material. When they reach a question, the video will pause and the question will appear
