Bongo is a video assessment & soft skill development platform. The Video Assignments tool allows instructors to create individual video-based submissions and peer review assignments for students and connect those activities to Grades.

Note: Bongo Video Assignments will not show up in the Assignments area of a course in Brightspace, as they are not a native Brightspace assignment. Bongo Video Assignments will only display in the Course Content area.
