Ellen Lewis, a lecturer at CSU Channel Islands, used PlayPosit to develop five interactive videos for PSY 457: Criminal Behavior, incorporating lecture recordings based on Chapter 3 of the course textbook (Heilbrun et al., 2024). Each video included multiple-choice, true/false, and discussion questions embedded throughout the lecture, prompting students to pause, reflect, and respond before continuing. To evaluate the impact of this interactive format, a post-lecture survey gathered student feedback on their experience compared to traditional lecture recordings without embedded questions. The sample provided here represents the final segment of the lecture. Reference Heilbrun, K., Greene, E., & Bradfield Douglass, A. (2024). Understanding crime.

Breeann Austin, the Instruction and Assessment Librarian from California State University, Channel Islands created active learning questions relevant to database searching and the research process. Using PlayPosit, these questions were embedded into two video tutorials on how to search library databases. These embedded questions allow students to actively engage with the videos and self-check their understanding of the material. Additionally, a questions template was created so librarians could reuse the questions in future video tutorials and instruction sessions.
