DOLCE on interactive instructional video with PlayPosit

Dear Faculty Colleagues,

Please join us for a March DOLCE event on Friday, March 1st, from 12-1pm. We will enjoy demonstrations from three faculty who have been teaching asynchronously with the interactive video learning tool PlayPosit. We will be joined that Friday by some teaching all-stars: Debbie Fetter from Nutrition, Mark Verbitsky from Political Science, and Martin Hilbert from Communication. Each of the demonstrations will be quick and visually rich, and I’m sure they will prompt questions and conversation from the attendees.

I hope you will appreciate learning about PlayPosit, an instructional design tool that offers instructors simplicity in the form of templates and reusable learning objects, as well as flexibility with regard to use of visuals and interaction. With PlayPosit, faculty can create active learning experiences by layering activities, websites, feedback, videos, questions, and more on top of video, audio, and text. Most of our faculty use it with video.

For those who are intrigued by PlayPosit as a teaching tool, we will also be offering a bonus 30-minute introductory webinar from 1-1:30, co-presented with Stephanie Gates, a trainer and Customer Success Manager from PlayPosit. If you can’t make it to the noon event, you are also welcome just to join us at 1 PM for the webinar.

Join for either or both events.

Please register now so you can join us Friday March 1st at noon for the presentations and discussion. If you are unable to join us live on Zoom, please visit The Wheel in the subsequent week to watch the recording.

See you on March 1st!
