OVERVIEW
This article describes how to use Mediasite within SFU's learning management system (Canvas).
My Mediasite is installed by default for all Canvas Course shells. Videos can be added to a Canvas page through a user-friendly interface. Video playlists, referred to as "Channels" in My Mediasite, can also be embedded into Canvas pages.
Content on My Mediasite is manageable from this address: https://stream.sfu.ca
LINK TO INDIVIDUAL VIDEOS OR EMBED "CHANNEL" FROM A CANVAS PAGE
To insert a video or Channel, create a new Canvas page or edit an existing page. Within the "Rich Text Editor", click on the button showing the Mediasite logo to begin selecting content. Once you have selected the type of content, Mediasite will display material for you to browse. Please allow a few moments for the system to find all the results.
UPLOADING VIDEOS TO YOUR MEDIASITE ACCOUNT FROM CANVAS
If you do not already have any content on Mediasite, you will need to upload your videos to your My Mediasite account.
Uploading and managing your content is identical whether you are creating content from within Canvas or directly at stream.sfu.ca
