You will enter the Topic with and embed of Wooclap where you can edit the event as if you were in the Wooclap website but without leaving Brightspace.

When you are ready to start the event:

  1. Click on Display on the "Join this Wooclap event" row

You will get the following screen:

This page shows the information to join the event but students will automatically get the event started for them if they click in this content topic.

The advantatge of using Wooclap within Brightspace is that students don´t need to join on their phones or go to wooclap.com, since the event will automatically start for them in this content topic.

Another advantage is whats explained in the following section.

Linking a Wooclap event to the Gradebook

Once you added a Wooclap event to Brightspace, you can link it to the Gradebook of the course so the grades are automatically transferred.

In order to do this you will need to create a "Questionnaire" within Wooclap.

In your Course Content:

  1. Go to the Wooclap event topic

On the new window:

  1. Click on Participant pace
  2. Click on Create questionnaire

On the new window, you will be able to create Wooclap questions as normal

  1. Click on New question

Once you are finished creating the quiestionnaire:

  1. Click on Save

On the pop-up window:

  1. Click on Publish now

Once you have a questionnaire created, scroll to the bottom of the page:

  1. Click on Add a grade item...

You can:

  1. Click on the drop-down list. to link this Wooclap event to an existing Grade Item
  2. (Optional) You can link the Wooclap questionnaire to more than one Grade Item by clicking Add Assessment

Once you are done linking:

  1. Click on Save

You have successfully linked the Wooclap questionaire to the Gradebook!

Now, every time a student completes the questionaire (self-paced), the grades will automatically show on the Gradebook.

If you don´t want students to get their grade for this questionnaire automatically, we recommend making the Grade Item linked to it not visible to students until you want to release the grade.

Now you know how to integrate in Brightspace!
