Overview: This Article describes the methods for uploading, publishing, and posting a Kaltura Video in Blackboard.
On the front page of Blackboard, you will want to go to the “My Media” section
In the media area, click on Add New then Media Upload.
In the Upload Media section, you can drag and drop a file to upload or select Choose a file to upload. Once a file is uploaded, it will take time for the media to be processed. That will be done in the background and can work on other things while it processes.
Once your file is uploaded, you will want to publish the video for your course.
Go back to My Media and find the video you uploaded by its title. Next to the video, there will be a box you can check. Check the box for the correct video, then select Actions, then Publish.
Under the “Publishing Status” bubble, “Published” or “Publish”. In “Publish In Gallery,” select the class to which you submit the video. Once it is complete, select Save.
You will now want to proceed to your assignment. In your assignment, select “Create Submission,” or if this is a discussion board post, select “Create Thread.” If it is a journal entry, select “Create Journal Entry.” No matter the chosen method, you will want to get to the text editor built into Blackboard, as seen below.
The icon you want is often hidden. To make more options appear, select the three dots. Then select the plus sign with a circle around it.
Click on "Kaltura Media"
Select "Embed" on what video you are trying to submit.
This will embed the video into the submission area. Please make sure you check for any other requirements needed for the assignment and then submit.
