SHARE CLAS VIDEOS AND ANNOTATIONS OUTSIDE OF YOUR

INSTITUTION

Collaborative Learning Annotation System

Introduction: A course can accessed “with authentication” by default or “publicly (anonymously)”, or via both methods at the same time.

Once a course has been shared to the public, an instructor can choose to let anonymous users view and comment / annotate on the whole course, or just one video within a course

There are a number of possible options in the public share mode that can be turned on and off to accommodate dif ferent course design needs, please contact arts.helpdesk@ubc.ca

INTRODUCTION

CLAS administrators please see share / unshare instructions in the “enroll/drop” tab in the admin tool.

After that, please email the instructors with the appropriate share l ink, depending on the setting that they specified.

§  Share the whole course: applications.arts.ubc.ca/clas_ext/index.php?

anon=true&cid=3 (replace with other course numbers)

§  Share one video within a course: applications.arts.ubc.ca/clas_ext/index.php?anon=true&vid=0_bvw3z180 (do not include the course id)

HOW CAN YOU USE THIS FEATURE? SHARE A COURSE TO THE PUBLIC

If public access is revoked from a course, then all the videos in that course will not be viewable by the public anymore even through previously -working video share l inks.

Anonymous users can also comment and annotate on the timeline, but they cannot edit posts once it had been submitted. After all , multiple anonymous users are indistinguishable from each other, and can all be posting at the same time

Anonymous users can put in a name tag in a “Post as:” box, which will be shown on their posts, but the post is sti l l identified as an anonymous post.

HOW CAN YOU USE THIS FEATURE? SHARE ONLY A V IDEO TO THE PUBLIC

Add “&co=true” (“co” stands for “comment only”) to the end of the share l ink to hide the annotation panel and disable annotation.

§  E.g. applications.arts.ubc.ca/clas_ext/index.php?anon=true&vid=0_bvw3z180&co=true

Sharing this way (to the public and without access control to a course, group, or department) is equivalent to a basic video sharing app like Youtube or Kaltura Mediaspace.

HOW CAN YOU USE THIS FEATURE? TURN OFF T IMELINE ANNOTATION, USE ONLY COMMENT

Look for the “share course / video” l ink where the download video link should be in normal (none public) mode

Video downloading is disabled for anonymous users

The reshare section of the page will adjust depending on whether the whole course or just a video was shared.

§  If a whole course was shared, than viewers can either reshare the course or just that video they were on

§  If only the video was shared, then that viewer can only reshare the video

HOW CAN YOU USE THIS FEATURE? RESHARE COURSE OR VIDEO

Instructors can choose to l imit public sharing of a course (and all the videos within that course) to read only. This means that the public will not be able to add any comment or annotation

⇒ Contact your department’s CLAS administrator or arts.helpdesk@ubc.ca

HOW CAN YOU USE THIS FEATURE? LIMIT PUBLIC SHARING TO “READ ONLY”
