What videos can students see in their homework?

Each question has a tailored support video covering a similar worked example

• The video demonstrates a method that students can follow to answer their question
• They are designed to be short and snappy, focusing on the key learning point of the question and addressing the likely sticking points
• Where possible, the complete worked example is shown on the screen of the video, with the audio and animation providing a more in-depth explanation

In the case of longer, problem-solving style questions, the first screen suggests steps or provides useful information, and students can choose to watch the whole video to access the full solution to the worked example.

All videos have subtitles 

• To enable or disable English captions, you can click on the three vertical dots button in the video player and click the ‘Captions’ menu item
• Find out more about accessibility in our article How does Sparx approach accessibility?

You can see the videos as a teacher

On the Planner or SoL pages, you can view an example of every question in a topic that a student could receive. From here you can watch the video that accompanies each question. 

Videos can also be seen alongside the questions when looking at a student's Answer history.

Finally, you can see the videos from a student perspective through Independent Learning, which you can access via the Management tab in your Sparx site. Here you will see an option to log in to Independent Learning
