What are Learner Made Bulbs?
In Learner Made Bulb assignments, learners will have access to the Bulb designer to create their own interactive videos as the submissions to the assignment. They can use the videos of their choice and add all the supported interaction types in PlayPosit into their Bulb. Instructors can use this feature to:
- Review projects where learners create their own questions on video already seen.
- Have learners create their own videos and add interactions to increase engagement.
- Record a learner's presentation and have them reflect on their performance with comments.
Create Learner Made Bulb assignments

- Points: Adjust the points for this assignment. The Learner Made Bulb assignment points can be from 0 to 100.

Allow learners to use private video hosts: Learners can use private video hosts (i.e., Panopto, Kaltura, Mediasite, etc.) integrated into the license to create their Bulb.
