PlayPosit: Completing a Bulb and Syncing Grades

Updated on May 15, 2024

About

In order to complete a PlayPosit bulb, the video must be watched to the end with all the interactions answered. Afterwards, your instructor may allow for retakes that initiate the Sync Grade option. This ensures that the bulbs score after being relaunched is successfully updated to the gradebook.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Answer all Interactions in the PlayPosit Bulb and watch until the end.

2. Bulb completion notification.

Instructors can hide learner scores after Bulbs are completed. Individual interactions are still able to be viewed for the score, but not the whole completed bulb percentage.

4.2. Bulb with minimum completion score

Some instructors may want a minimum score to complete the bulb. If the criteria isn't met, there will be a grey pop-up as stated on the image below, "You did not score the minimum requirement of 90%. Please try again."

Optional: Retake Bulb

5. Retake option is available only if your instructor enables it.

Note: your instructor may have enabled individual interactions to allow retakes. In this case, retake only the incorrect ones without going through the whole bulb again.
