Linking and Embedding Videos in Blackboard

0

To share a non-Echo360 video such as a Zoom recording or a YouTube video, select the Recording content area on the left to post and organize the links.

Hover over the Build Content menu and select Web Link. Supply a name then either type or copy and paste the URL (e.g., http://www.fordham.edu/). Add a description to provide context for the link if necessary.

To upload and share a video instead of a web link, select the Video option located above Web Link. From here, specify a Name and an optional description.

Next, upload the file from your computer using the Browse My Computer option or to link to a YouTube video,click the Browse Mashups WYSIWYG tool and select YouTube Video. The latter option will allow the instructor to embed the YouTube video in a frame.

Note, to embed an Echo360 asynchronous recording from your Echo360 Library, select the Echo360 option from the Mashups list.
