If you are using video to share content, then you may want to join our PlayPosit pilot. If more engaging video is something you are considering, check out our blog post on the topic here.
PlayPosit is an interactive video platform that allows you to seamlessly integrate polls, quizzes, discussion boards, and notetaking right in your video. You can also use the tool to share and respond to documents, both individually and as a class, or for students to create their own presentations.
Plus, PlayPosit can be used during synchronous video classes to engage students in comprehension checks regardless of their location.
But don’t take our word for it.
Deb Pearson, Associate Professor of Chemistry, participated in the pilot during the Fall 2020 semester and will be participating again in Spring 2021. She shared:
If our campus is piloting this play posit how do I help make sure that we keep this tool as a campus? I think it is one of the best things to come along to aid in student learning in a long time and this is what my students have been telling me.
Jolanda Sallmann, Associate Professor of Social Work, also participated in the pilot during the Fall 2020 semester and shared her impressions of the tool in a short vlog.
