As we prepare to offer the majority of classes online for the Fall 2020 semester, Technologies in Education has prepared some guides to help you prepare for online delivery.
Do you have videos that you use in eClass that were previously stored in Kaltura? The Faculty of Education's Kaltura video streaming service expired in July, but an archive of our videos has been saved to Google Drive. Any Kaltura videos used in eClass will need to be transferred to one of the centrally supported video services and links will need to be updated. Please contact Tech in Ed in early August for help identifying, moving and re-linking your video content.

In consultation with Technologies in Education, the Faculty has reviewed our video streaming requirements and decided to move away from the Kaltura service which we have been using for the past 4 years. The University -- through IST and the library -- now offers several services that can meet all of our Faculty's video streaming needs reliably and more cost-effectively.

We want to understand what your priorities were, how you planned to meet them, and the recommendations you would have for others.
