Add Interactivity to Panopto Videos with PlayPosit

Tuesday, Nov 8, 2 - 3 pm pm

Do you use Panopto or Warpwire at Duke to teach with video? Are you working with instructors to record videos? Duke Learning Innovation is working with PlayPosit to enhance your hybrid and online teaching through easy-to-produce video modules. In this session you will learn how to repurpose existing content for a new use in your course (e.g. broadcast it!), reuse video content already created and upcycle (modify and embellish) the resulting learning objects you’ve established to scale your impact and engage your learners.

You know how to build a bulb. Now let’s make it more engaging and personalized for your learners. This session will focus on features and configurations that allow learners to jump, skip, and self-direct their way to content mastery. Features covered include jumping assessment questions, hotspots, and more.

We also feature teaching and learning events from other Duke units and external vendors on our full calendar.
