Integrated 3-D Challenges overview

Each module on Twig Science features an Integrated 3-D Challenge. These sessions cover two or more disciplines of NGSS standards. In order to complete the assigned challenge, students will write and produce a video examining a specific phenomena. Each Integrated 3-D Challenge includes a detailed student Research Pack, a video bank, full teacher instructions, and an assessment rubric.

Videos can be created on Twig Science using our integrated video editor, Twig Create.

Student View

Here you can see the digital student version of the session.

Note

Integrated 3-D challenges are only available on the digital platform. Print versions of the challenges are not available.

How does a student open the video editor?

1. The video editor is integrated into the student session. When the student reaches the Make Week part of the challenge, there will be a link to the video editor within the student session.

2. In the video editor you can select images, add music, title cards and narration. Simply select an image folder, then drag and click the images to the timeline.

3. A student can preview their video at any time by clicking Preview. When they are finished adding the shots to their timeline, click Continue. Here they canedit each clip and add any text.

4. Click Finish video to save. This might take a few seconds in the background to process the information and render the finished product.

5. Once your video has finished rendering they may need to refresh the page to see their creation.

How do I view student videos?

You will be able to view and grade the 3-D integrated challenge, including student videos when a student turns in their session.

Click on the assigned session from your dashboard. Switch to Grade. Use the Student dropdown to select your Student. Now scroll down to the Twig Create video.

How do I grade or leave feedback for this type of session?

You can grade or leave feedback for Integrated 3-D challenges as you would for any other session. Feedback for student videos can be left in the feedback text box located underneath the video.

How does a student use Twig Create for Integrated 3-D Challenges?

The platform has a detailed pdf handout available for students. It can be found on each session under Handouts.

When an Integrated 3-D Challenge is assigned to a student, it will appear on their Student Dashboard.

Your students should work through the session, completing each section. At the bottom of their session there is a section called Final Project which contains a link to the video editor.

Clicking on the video thumbnail opens the video editor.

Students can select from a library of video footage. Clips can be dragged into their video timeline. Text, music and narration can also be added. When a student first opens up the video player a number of suggested video slides will appear, however students can also browse through the extensive library.

Here's an overview of the video editor: Students can preview their video at any time by clicking Preview. When they're finished adding the shots to their timeline, they can click Continue. Here students canedit each clip and add any text.

To save their video, students need to click Finish video. This might take a few seconds in the background to process the information and render the video.

Can I access Twig Create and make my own video as a teacher?

Teachers can view the Twig Create video editor by:

1. Assigning an Integrated 3-D session.

2. Go to your Assignments and click on the assigned session.

3. Select Grade tab.

4. Select My Copy from the student dropdown box.

5. Scroll down and click on the Twig Create logo, this will now open the video editor.

Can a student create a video over several lessons?

Students can come back to their video at any time to continue their work or to re-edit their video. To do this they just need to navigate to their assigned session, scroll down to the Final Project section and click on the action menu on the video thumbnail.

How does a student turn in their video for grading?

A student should turn in their video for grading when they have completed the Integrated 3-D Challenge session. They can do this by clicking Turn in at the bottom of the page.

Once a session has been turned in for grading, students can no longer edit their video.

Note

The video editor is hosted on a different platform, so please check with support@twigscience.com if you encounter any access issues.

Can my students share devices when creating Integrated 3-D Challenge videos?

Wherever possible we would recommend students do not share devices when creating their videos, doing so may result in an error message.

1. Select log out.

2. Go back to Twig Science and refresh your page.
