Accessing Kaltura
Kaltura is accessed by clicking My Media link within a course. This link must be enabled by the instructor in each course so that instructors and students have access to this tool.
The My Media link acts like a storage spot for all of your videos. Each user has their own view of the MyMedia link. For example, if Student A clicks on MyMedia, they will only see the videos that Student A has uploaded and will not see Student B or Instructor X’s media.
