Step 3: Add/Edit Media File Name

While the file is uploading, you can fill out the details for the video. We suggest adding for the name a meaningful title for the video. Including information like what the video is, what module in the course it is for can be useful for searching in Kaltura later.

Step 4: Add Tags and Make Media Unlisted

Under tags we suggest adding the four letter program abbreviation and CRN.

Under Publishing status, select Unlisted to make the video visible to any one with a link. This will make the video available to students when you link the video to your course content.
