PlayPosit
PlayPosit is a tool that can be used to create interactions and assessments around video resources. These interactions are called bulbs.

Other PlayPosit Features
Best Practices
- If using videos from Panopto, it is best to set them to “Anyone with the link (Public unlisted)”
- Add the “The PlayPosit Learner Experience” bulb to your course so students can practice
- Have someone test your Playposit bulbs and playlists rather than using Preview Mode
- Provide clear instructions at each step of your Playposit
- Make sure students know that they must “Complete” the entire Playposit in order for a grade to pass back to Blackboard
Using Playposit on an iPad
- Make sure that your iPad is running the latest OS
- Make sure that your Anthology app is up to date
- If accessing from a browser, Chrome will not allow documents added to Playposit playlists to download
