Important Student Privacy Information

If you intend to share video that includes student participation (identifying information such as name, image, or voice), you must follow certain practices; please see the Academic Senate FAQ "If I record a class lecture or discussion, and it includes student participation (identifying information such as name, image, or voice), can I share the recording with individuals who are not enrolled in the course?"

 

From a bCourses site's Media Gallery

  1. Click +Add Media (If you do not see the +Add Media button, it may be because you have added Playlists and are on the Playlists tab; select the Media tab).

    Screenshot of the Media Gallery with the Media Tab selected and highlighted and the Add Media Button highlighted.

    You can now see what is in your My Media (even though you technically are still in your course site's Media Gallery)

  2. Click the checkbox(es) to select the media item(s) you want to publish to this Media Gallery.
  3. Click Publish (at the top of the page). The media item(s) you selected will become visible in the Media Gallery that you started from.

From My Media (can publish to one or more bCourses sites' Media Galleries at once)

(Note: You can access My Media from any bCourses site's course navigation or through MediaSpace. If your bCourses site does not have My Media in the site navigation, see How do I add My Media or Media Gallery to my bCourses site?)

  1. Click the checkbox to the left of each media item you want to publish. 
  2. Scroll to the top of the page and from the Actions menu, choose Publish.

    Screenshot of My Media with the first video's checkbox checked and the Publish button under the Actions menu highlighted.

  3. Click the Published radio button if it is not already selected. The "Publish in Gallery" selector should be visible.
  4. Select the course site(s) to which you want the media published to the site's Media Gallery. 
  5. Click Save. The media item(s) you selected in step 1 is/are now visible in the Media Galleries of the course site(s) you selected in step 4.

    Screenshot of the Publishing menu with the Published radio button highlighted, the first video's checkbox checked, and the Save button highlighted.

 

Note: If you only need to publish one item, here are other ways to get to the "Publish in Gallery" selector:
