Submitting a Media Assignment
Important Notes
- File uploads directly to Assignment activities are limited to 50MB. As such, you will likely be unable to directly upload a media file (MP4, MOV,etc) to an Assignment activity. Use the instructions below to complete an assignment requiring a media submission.
- PowerPoint presentations with recorded audio are also too large to directly upload. Export them to an MP4 video file first, and then upload them to your MyMedia in Moodle.
Strategies: Creating a media recording for an assignment:
- A PowerPoint presentation with recorded audio can be exported to a media file.
- If you are familiar with Zoom, you can record a Zoom session while presenting. When you have that MP4 video file on your computer, you can submit this file using instructions below.
- Use the Kaltura Desktop Recorder app accessible via your MyMedia area https://moodle.unbc.ca/local/mymedia/mymedia.php
