Media, webconferencing, and lecture recording
Using video in Discussion Forums
Instructors have two options for student video assignment submissions:
- If you want all students in the course to be able to view all the video submissions, it is best to ask students to post their videos within a Forum. That way other students can comment on peer’s videos and discuss.
- If the video assignments are only to be seen by the author and the Instructor, then students should submit videos to an Kaltura Video Assignment
Using Video as the subject of a Forum:
Instructors and students can post a video in the text editor of a Forum for discussion. This can either be a Youtube link (simply paste the link in – Moodle will embed the video), or you can use the Embed Kaltura Media option as demonstrated below:
- Select the Embed Kaltura Media button in the editor
- A window with a view of your MyMedia collection will open
- Select the [Embed] button beside the media item you with to add to the forum
- A shortcode will be inserted for you in the forum. Click [Save]
- Return to the forum to view your inserted video.
