Kaltura Capture
Kaltura Video Platform
Kaltura’s Video Platform is a centralized online video screen recording tool that is embedded in Canvas. Kaltura offers a suite of features that allow you to easily integrate video into your course to increase student engagement. It is recommended that you upload your video content to the Kaltura Video Platform, in order to free up valuable file storage space within your Canvas course.
Examples
- Kaltura Capture videos automatically land in the MyMedia tab in Canvas and your videos have unlimited storage. The MyMedia tab is your private collection of videos.
- Embed quizzes within the video to let your students self-evaluate their learning
- Easily associate closed caption files with videos for accessible learning
- Create a course media gallery (a YouTube-like channel) that you and your students can use to upload video, images, and audio. Then, make it social and allow commenting.
- Students can upload/create videos in Canvas to post in assignments and discussion forums
- Measure student engagement with video analytics
