Top Hat is a Supported audience participation tool for creating interactive content for your students.
Introduction
Create not only engaging lectures, but also interactive readings, assignments and a wide range of assessments with Top Hat. The platform works well with a variety of LMS providers and is well known for offering a wide range of assessment questions; including multiple choice, fill in the blank, numeric, matching questions and more.
Once your learners have completed the assessment, you can access a range of tools for tracking progress, analysing data and facilitating conversations directly with your students.
You can also use Top Hat to stream lectures as an alternative to other tools for meeting online mentioned in this guide.
You can check out the website for more information and speak to your Associate Head (Student Experience) or a member of the Learning Enhancement Team to get started.
