Filed under: EduBrite Solution, TenPlusTwo Feature — Tags: , , , , — Ajay Upadhyaya @ 10:19 pm

Exam season is at its peak and we thought about what could be the most lightweight online tool to do revision of syllabus, and the answer we came up with was an auto quizzer, which can pick questions from the question bank of past papers and throw at you randomly. We released this tool “Auto Quiz” as part of EduBrite platform as well as a Facebook integrated version. You can try it on www.tenplustwo.com (if you have account already, if not getting started is fairly quick (may be about 30 sec), going to Create->AutoQuiz from the top menubar. Or if you are on facebook, then you can try from this URL – http://apps.facebook.com/autoquiz/

This app allows you to pick an exam and subject and start quizzing. You can set the timer to a value which can challenge your speed. The session’s correct, incorrect & skipped counters are displayed along…

Video Assignments

Filed under: Uncategorized — Ajay Upadhyaya @ 11:33 pm

EduBrite LMS just released yet another new feature in LMS – Video Assignments. The use of Video assignments can be found in streams which are more interactive in nature, e.g. communication skills improvement courses, language courses. These courses require assignments which are not read or written or taken rather which are spoken or acted. This motivated us to combine audio video into assignment flow which allows instructors to record themselves while giving assignment using webcam. Students just watch the video and then for assignment submission, record there own videos. All is done using built in support in EduBrite LMS to record the videos. All submissions are then viewed by the instructor and get graded as usual.

The product demo site “demo.edubrite.com” can be used to try this feature. Also a completely personalized microsite can be created (accounts.edubrite.com) by anyone to start free 60 day trial.
