Corsera video interaction technology.

2 points by leke 13y ago ↗ HN

During a Coursera video, there is a part which requires a user/viewer to answer a topic related question. What is the name of the technology that allows users to interact with the video in such a way?

Thanks.

Html5....

Specifically they are hiding the video, showing dom elements for the interaction, check the result via Javascript/Ajax, and put the video back on.
