These instructions illustrate how to reply to a discussion forum using a desktop computer but the steps are the same when using a browser on a mobile device. You can create your video by recording in Photo Booth (Mac), the "Camera" app (Windows), or on your smartphone (if you have one). Remember where you saved the file. Then in the Moodle discussion forum:
- Depending on your instructor’s directions, either Add a New Discussion Topic or Reply to a topic.
- In your post add a Subject and then click on the Kaltura. Kaltura will open in a new window.
-
- Note: If you do not see the Kaltura icon, you will need to click the Advanced button
- Click Add New to record or upload a video. If you previously uploaded a video, click Select and skip to step 12.
- In the drop down select Media Upload

- Ether Drag & Drop the file on the screen or select Choose a file to upload to navigate to the saved file.
