VU-specific FAQ
+ My FeedbackFruits assignment is running, but (one of) my students are experiencing technical difficulties. What do I do?
+ If I copy a Canvas course what happens with the FeedbackFruits assignment settings?
If you copy assignments that include external tools (i.e. FeedbackFruits tools), the settings of the external tool will not be copied. To solve this for FeedbackFruits assignments you can choose 'use copy of existing' to copy assignment settings of a previous FeedbackFruits assignment.
+ Can I use my Kaltura/My Media video as a FeedbackFruits Interactive Video assignment?
Because Kaltura/My Media video's are not open access (and only accessable by a password), it's not possible to easily add the link of your Kaltura video in Interactive Video. You will have to download your video and upload it. Want to know how to do this? This is explained in the step-by-step Interactive Video guide in step 11.
