This document discusses allowing students in multimedia and music performance courses to submit video evidence of performances through Moodle for online courses. It explores challenges like large file sizes and teacher technology skills. Plugins were found that enable online audio and video submissions through Moodle like PoodLL and YouTube. The YouTube Anywhere plugin also allows providing video feedback. Configuring the plugins got them thinking about other course opportunities for video submissions and feedback like hardware installations, risk assessments, and client interviews.

1. Performance Recording and
Submission
Sharyn Hooper & Scott Huntley

2. What is the need…
▪ Multimedia courses that require submission of
video and animations to our Moodle
▪ Current strategy is for students to submit via
USB or CD/DVD
▪ How would this work for the online versions of
the Multimedia course?

3. What is the need…
▪ We run a Certificate III in Music that has a
performance focus
▪ Student can demonstrate performance skills in being
a DJ, vocals, or playing an instrument
▪ To be competent a student needs a minimum of 3
performances
▪ The opportunity to gather this evidence may be
outside the class or college
▪ How do we allow a student to submit video evidence
via the Moodle?

4. Challenges…
▪ Musically talented teachers who did not always
have the technology skills to identify how to
achieve submissions of this type through the
section Moodle
▪ Obtaining and securing the evidence for
compliance purposes
▪ Space, space, space

5. Where has all the space gone…
▪ Privately hosted Moodle
▪ Limited space
▪ What we’ve used before any
student submissions are
received
We’re going
to run out of
space again

6. What we wanted…
▪ Searched the Moodle plugin repository
▪ We wanted to find out what we could use to
allow the students to submit these large media
files
▪ Also wanted the teachers to be able to provide
media file feedback
▪ Looked in the Assignment submission and
assignment feedback categories for solutions

7. What we found…
▪ Online audio recording – good for an audio
only performance

8. What we found…
▪ Online PoodLL submission – audio and video
https://moodle.org/plugins/view/assignsubmission_onlinepoodll

9. What we found…
▪ YouTube submissions
https://moodle.org/plugins/view/assignsubmission_youtube

10. What we found…
▪ Feedback PoodLL
https://moodle.org/plugins/view/assignfeedback_poodll

11. What we found…
▪ For feedback YouTube Anywhere
https://moodle.org/plugins/view/tinymce_youtube

12. Configuring the plugins
▪ All of the selected plugins installed without any
specific configuration except for YouTube
Anywhere
▪ The default editor we were working with didn’t
automatically allow the addition of the
YouTube Anywhere button
▪ Solution was to switch editors to TinyMCE
Editor

13. Configuring the YouTube Anywhere plugin
▪ We then added the YouTube Anywhere button
to TinyMCE
 This makes the YouTube Anywhere button
available throughout the Moodle

14. Opportunity?
▪ This got us thinking about how other courses
could use video submissions and feedback
▪ Demonstrate installing internal hardware
components in our Certificate III Support online
course
▪ WHS risk assessments
▪ Video evidence of student’s interviewing clients
for communication based units
