Link to Films on Demand videos so that they can be accessed on or off campus.
In Films on Demand you can get a durable link for videos or embed videos so that you can share with your students in D2L. Here's how:
- Get the link or code:
Use the Share Tool below the video to get a durable or embed code to share with your students in D2L. Both of these options allow students access the video without having to login separately to FOD.
- To embed: select the Copy option for Embed code. The default option of medium works best in D2L. Students can still enlarge to full screen during playback.
- For a link: select the Copy option for LTI Link.
- Add to Your Course:
