Instructors can use Kaltura to record short lectures or instructional videos and easily share them with their students, and Kaltura can also be used by students to record and upload presentations and other video content.

Kaltura allows you to create these videos by recording what is happening on your webcam and/or computer screen as well as what you are saying into a microphone.

Kaltura stores your recordings online in a personalized “My Media” library, which is available from the main Canvas menu.

These videos can be easily embedded in Canvas or shared just about anywhere online that you would like to put them. You maintain full control of the videos you record and can delete or hide them at any time.

Kaltura Basics

• Embedding Kaltura Videos in Canvas – Kaltura recordings can be easily embedded in another context in Canvas (announcements, discussions, assignments, etc)
• Recording with Express Capture –Best for quick recordings that do not require editing.
• Installing and using Kaltura Capture: Windows | Mac – Best for longer or more complex recordings:
• Uploading Existing Media to Kaltura – Uploading previously recorded video to Kaltura is a better option than adding video files directly to your Canvas course site.

For Faculty

• Adding Kaltura Videos to Canvas Modules
• Creating a Kaltura  Assignment for Student Videos  (make sure to also provide students with the instructions on Submitting a Video Assignment)

Videos created in Kaltura are automatically captioned using automatic speech recognition which provides 70-95% accuracy. It is important, however, for instructors to review and edit captions for accuracy in videos used as course content.
