Why Use the Kaltura Video Platform with Your LMS?

Streamline video management: Rather than relying on central media and LMS teams, allow students and faculty to upload and manage media independently.

Extend your LMS with video capabilities: Enable students and faculty to experience video as they would documents and other course objects.

Ensure top quality media delivery and protect LMS performance: With Kaltura's tier 1 hosting, and CDN, give students a high quality viewing experience and prevent your LMS from stalling under the weight of video files.

Main Features and Tools

The Kaltura Media Gallery (KMG) appears as a menu item called “Media Gallery” in the left hand sidebar of the default Sakai interface. The tool is available to users once they select a course inside Sakai. The tool allows users to search and browse a course’s collection of visible media in order to manage and play the content. Users can select viewable content from the KMG’s Site Library and create topic-based collections of content with their own viewing permissions.

Faculty/Admins can change permissions so that the content is:

Viewable by course/site members in the Media Gallery

Shared by course/site members, other members can re-use this content item in other contexts where they add media (e.g., Course, Forum, Wiki, Assignments).

Remixable by course/site members thus creating a collaborative video via the Kaltura Advanced Editor
