GoReact is an external tool for feedback, grading, and critiquing of student video assignments. This video assessment software allows students to develop and demonstrate their skills online by individually or collaboratively creating video assignments and receiving personalised feedback.

...

Ensure that your department has a license, you have appropriate access to the Moodle course page and any videos or documents you make available to your students are correctly licensed. For a brief summary of copyright considerations please see the copyright teaching page .

Meeting the baseline

The UCL e-Learning baseline suggests the following for orientation :

  • 2.2 Explain participation requirements
    • Identify which activities are compulsory and optional.

    • Provide an indicator of effort (such as timings or page counts) for all compulsory tasks.

    • Explain how students are expected to use UCL and external e-learning tools. This PowerPoint Induction template provides a starting point. Wholly online courses might provide this information as a screen-cast video, with a voice over.

    • Link to instructions for any e-learning tools that students are expected to use.

 For student active participation it is suggested that:

  • 9.1 Students are encouraged and supported to work with learning resources
    Student should be encouraged to investigate, share or discuss through videos and simulations.

    Note
    titleCaution

    Be sure to review the GoReact tool settings and check the training videos to ensure to ensure you are happy with your video assignment. Most error messages can be resolved by editing the tool settings and ensuring that the assignment is set up correctly.

    The following important points should be considered:

    1. Ensure you change the Launch Container from 'Default' to 'New Window' otherwise GoReact may be unable to access your camera and microphone to record videos.
    2. Ensure you select the correct course when creating your GoReact assignments. You could otherwise accidently use some of the restricted licenses for students.
    3. Only users enrolled into your Moodle course with the role of ‘Student’ will be synchronised to GoReact and have access to your video assignments.
    4. When setting up a new assignment, you may see a 'Students will pay $29.99' message (see image on the right-hand side), this doesn't apply to our licensing model and you can skip the message by selecting 'next'.

    ...

    • If students are seeing the error message "We're terribly sorry, but it looks like your instructor hasn't finished setting up GoReact for this assignment. Please let them know." Then the GoReact assignment was created in Moodle, but never opened by a tutor/administrator. Once you (the instructor) open the GoReact assignment and select the GoReact assignment type and any additional settings, then this error will be resolved. When you open the assignment in Moodle and see the GoReact dashboard, then you know that the assignment is set up correctly.
    • If you are seeing the error message "GoReact doesn't appear to be setup correctly. The referenced resource was either missing or malformed and could not be copied to this activity."  ThenThen, you most likely attempted to copy the assignment outside of GoReact. GoReact doesn't support external assignment copying. Instead, you will need to create a new assignment in Moodle, open it, and then use the "Copy a previous assignment" functionality within the GoReact tool.


    Info

    Note for Chromebook users:

    Due to the widely varying hardware and (often limited) system resources in Chromebooks, their performance with GoReact may or may not be acceptable. In our testing, newer, more robust Chromebooks generally work fine, while older or more limited Chromebooks will struggle or can fail outright. If your GoReact experience on a Chromebook isn't satisfactory, you'll most likely need to use a different device.

    Screen Capture:

    • Screen capture doesn't work on mobile devices.
    • Screen capture is only supported in Chrome and Edge (not in Safari or Firefox).
    • The audio captured during the screen recording is from your microphone, not your computer audio.
    • Screen recordings are played back in standard definition, so  it is recommended that text be set to font size 14pt or higher  for best legibility.  Lower font sizes will not be legible.
    • On macOS 10.15+ (Catalina), to share your screen you must grant the browser access to the screen in macOS System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Screen Recording

    Accessibility

    GoReact is designed to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1, levels A and AA. For more about WCAG 2.1 compliance, see: Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1.
