Who is Visual Learning Kids?

Visual Learning Kids, Inc. is an educational Website with web address Visual Learning Kids (https://visuallearningkids.com/) that allows students to watch videos either created by VLK, Inc. or those created by their instructors on our website’s Platform using a process that is Patent Pending.

Step #1: There are markers below the video. These markers represent multiple choice or open-ended questions. Viewer begins video by clicking on the START button.

Step #2: Once the viewer clicks the START button, the video plays and as the progress bar moves to the first marker, a signal written or verbal or any signal of any type asks the viewer to PAUSE the video to answer a question. In this case by clicking a glowing red button with the word, “Sure” in it. If the viewer does not click “Sure” or responds in any way to the signal asking the viewer to Pause the video, the video will continue to play until the viewer responds to the signal asking the viewer to Pause the video or in this case by clicking the glowing red “Sure” button. When the viewer does this, the video stops and the first question from the first marker will pop-up even if the viewer hadn’t stopped the video when the progress bar was far beyond other markers.

Step #3: After first clicking the “Sure,” button, a window opens up with a question for the viewer to answer.

Step #4: The viewer chooses an answer by clicking an answer choice and clicks SUBMIT.

Step #6: After the viewer clicks “Continue” on Step #5, the video will automatically rewind to the first marker and begin to play forward from that point on even though the viewer may have stopped the video on a marker beyond the first marker. The reason for this is so the viewer has to view the entire video and answer each question along the way. Client has total control of Video play and pause features.
