Access PlayPosit

There are two ways to access your PlayPosit Instructor Account: through a Brightspace course or through the website. Accessing either way will create an account with PlayPosit under the University of Arizona enterprise license.

Features of University of Arizona Enterprise PlayPosit Accounts

• Single Sign-on: Instructors and learners are never prompted to enter a separate email, username, or password to create or view content.
• Auto-sync course data: PlayPosit manages learner-course relationships, eliminating the need to manually create courses or upload rosters.
• Auto-sync grades: Learner grades are synced immediately with the Brightspace Gradebook at the end of a Bulb. As well, instructors can access the rich analytics from any PlayPosit link within Brightspace. 
• Co-instructor collaboration: Multiple instructors, instructional designers, and TAs can access their own PlayPosit content and manage any shared course content, like Bulbs and analytics. 
• Course copy: Instructors can save time by seamlessly copying PlayPosit links to recurring courses. The new course and learner roster is automatically synced and previous data is cleared.
