Embed Kaltura Video into a Lesson (Rich Text Editor)
Embed Kaltura Video into a Lesson
- Log in to Sakai and navigate to the course and specific lesson where you want to add the video.
- Click the Add Content + button and select Add Text in the drop-down menu.
-
Click on the shopping cart icon () in the Rich Text Editor.
-
Find the media you would like to insert and click the embed button () next to it.
- An outline of a box where your media will be placed will appear in the text box.
-
Place your cursor below the outline and add some text, explaining to users what they should do with the media and why.
- E.g., Watch the above video to learn about the seven principles of Universal Design, which you will share your reflections on in this week’s class discussion.
-
Click the Save button.
- Note: If you receive a Notice in Sakai about HTML formatting tags or attributes, you can ignore it. Your content should still function as intended.
Your lesson should now include the embedded video (a thumbnail with a play icon overlaying it), the video’s searchable and scrollable captions, and your explanatory text.
Note: You can follow similar steps to embed a Kaltura video within any Sakai tool that has the Rich Text Editor (e.g., Announcements, Assignments, etc.).
