You can insert your own quizzes into YouTube videos. This might be a fun way to test students. "Using Blubbr you can create interactive quizzes that are based on YouTube clips. Your quizzes can be about anything of your choosing. The structure of the quizzes has a viewer watch a short clip then answer a multiple choice question about the clip. Viewers know right away if they chose the correct answer or not. To create a quiz on Blubbr start by entering a topic for your quiz. After entering your topic enter a search for a video about that topic. Blubbr will generate a list of videos that you can select from to use in your quiz. When you find a video that works for you, trim the clip to a length that you like then write out your question and answer choices." T/H R. Byrnes

This is a round-up of ways to add interactive elements to your own videos. These can enhance videos for flipped lessons. One of these tools is YouTube itself, which has built-in annotation tools. Mad Video lets you insert interactive tags to websites, images, or other video directly into YouTube videos. WireWax lets you insert a different audio track into the original video, while Blubbr creates video-based quizzes. Have fun!
