Inject Fun into Boring Videos with Interactive Videos

Sachin Chaudhari, CEO of Paradiso SoftwareSan Francisco, CA (USA), April 2016 - Paradiso Solutions, a leading Silicon Valley-based eLearning product and services company, displays great enthusiasm when speaking about interactive videos. Commenting on the feature of interactive videos, Sach Chaudhari, CEO of Paradiso Software, said, “Interactive videos up the engagement factor by letting the viewer decide the course of the action, or by just playing around with the content.” 

So, what are interactive videos? Interactive videos in Paradiso LMS help an organization create, share, and reuse content with their learners. These are videos that are made by the addition of immersive interactive elements such as images, elaborating text, links, and quizzes, etc. as hotspots. These hotspots pop up while the learner watches the video to make the activity immersive.  

Andrew Das, marketing manager at Paradiso Solutions, pitched in to elaborate a little on interactive videos. “Watching plain eLearning videos can be boring. Hence, interactive videos! We’ve got reviews from learners who’ve gone through interactive videos, and they seemed to have loved it. This is mainly because it serves as an opportunity for them to not just watch, but to click, swipe, and otherwise engage in the video-watching process.”

Andrew added, “The use of graphic and narrative interactive elements gives it that extra zing, which plays an important role in retaining learners to learning. No doubt, interactive videos breathe life into the boring task of learning. This is actually a fantastic feature given the drab task of watching videos.”
