Sync-Comments Student Videos

Educators can use Sync-comments to provide time stamped feedback to students. This is a powerful feedback tool that provides students optimal critique from which they can learn and improve.

Quick Tip

From your video panel scroll down to student videos. Click on the thumbnail for the video you want to add comments to. This will load this video for comments. Simply click "add comment" at the appropriate time. The comments will be time syncronized with the video when the student watches it the next time. Note: all sync-comments are private between you and the specific student.
