***NOTE: UW-Green Bay instructors can use PlayPosit to create interactive videos, called "bulbs," and share those bulbs wth students in their Canvas courses. One of those methods for sharing a PlayPosit bulb with students is to add it to a Canvas module as an ungraded external tool module item. Bulbs shared via this methos are not linked with the Canvas course's gradebook.***

Perform the following steps to add a PlayPosit bulb to a Canvas module as an ungraded external tool module item:

1. On your Canvas course's Home page, select the "Add item" button (appears as a plus icon) of the module to which you'd like to add a PlayPosit bulb.

2. In the Add [Item Type] to: drop-down menu, select "External Tool."

3. Select "PlayPosit" from the list of available external tools.

4. The PlayPosit setup menu will open in a pop-up window. Select "Enter PlayPosit" to open the My Bulbs menu in PlayPosit.

***NOTE: This setup window can be resized to take up more of your screen by clicking and dragging its edges.***
