There are a few ways to add videos to a Moodle course
Adding a YouTube or Vimeo video
The easiest way to add a YouTube video is to add a link to the video, by adding a URL resource. Copy the URL of the YouTube video and paste it into the address of the URL resource.
You can also embed a video from YouTube into your course using the following steps:
- Create a new page in Moodle (under add a resource)
- Go to the HTML source view by clicking on the "HTML" button in the content box (bottom row of the toolbar, right hand side)
- Go to YouTube or Vimeo and copy the video embed code. This is under the "Share" link.
- Paste the embed code into the Moodle page content box.
- Save the page.
Uploading a video to Moodle
If you have your own video you want to add to Moodle, you can upload it just like any other file. If it is a large file (over 100MB) or a longer video, it is best to contact ITS to upload your file to our streaming video server. Email help@swarthmore.edu with your request.
