4/7Â Yuja Video Quizzes
Time: 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Instructors: Tom Cantu
Description:Â Â
Using videos in courses is common, but knowing which students are actively watching them can be challenging. Yuja, the MC video platform, allows faculty to embed quiz questions directly into videos. These videos can be posted in Blackboard with quiz scores appearing in the grade center. Faculty can add questions to any video, whether it’s their own or from other sources like YouTube or Films On Demand.
Outcomes:Â Â
- Add quiz questions to videos using their MC Yuja account.
- Post the videos in Blackboard and review the quiz scores in the Blackboard grade center.
- Upload video transcripts to Generative AI to create a bank of questions to select, edit, and use.

Time: 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM

Whether you view Artificial Intelligence as a disruptive nuisance or a useful tool, it has likely impacted your teaching in some way. So how do we manage the prevalence (and use) of AI tools while promoting learning in the different disciplines? In this session, we will reflect on the different ways AI has impacted both learning and industry and explore ways to build a learning culture that acknowledges the role of AI while honoring ethical standards and authentic learning experiences.
