Getting Started with the PlayPosit Analytics Monitor

Have you been using PlayPosit this quarter? By now, you’ve likely noticed the data that PlayPosit provides you with via our monitor screen shows you tons of information about how exactly your students are performing on the bulbs you’re giving them. But, do you know all of the features that this screen contains?

In this webinar you will learn more about -

• Various analytics views that allow you to see at a glance how your class has performed on a specific interaction
• How to navigate your CSV export
• Where to find individual student reports
• How you can use this data to guide your instruction

What is PlayPosit?: Make your online, blended, or flipped course active with PlayPosit–a platform that allows you to transform passive video and audio into interactive experiences. Draw from YouTube, Vimeo, or your own recordings to make your own video, then easily add elements into the recording to personalize instruction. Use it during class for an engaging synchronous experience, or outside of the course to flip or blend your content. Watch real-time data and analytics to see where students are confused and which topics need to be expounded upon. What’s more: Inspire higher-order thinking by assigning learners to create interactive videos–they will learn the content as well as learn how to teach themselves.

A brief introductory video is available for viewing, and the PlayPosit knowledge base contains a wealth of information for all things PlayPosit, including the following resources concerning Canvas, bulbs (i.e., the interactive videos created in PlayPosit), and privacy:

• Accessing PlayPosit in Canvas
• Building a Bulb
• Monitoring Bulbs

In addition to the information provided above by PlayPosit, UC Davis also provides the following knowledge base articles that may be of interest to new campus PlayPosit users:

• Authenticating and accessing your PlayPosit account
• Using PlayPosit with Canvas for student learning
• PlayPosit: Student perspective
