Library resources in Brightspace/D2L - Faculty Guide

JoVE Science Education is a video library dedicated to teaching scientific fundamentals through video demonstrations. There are several ways to add videos to your course shell:

• add videos as a permanent link using the same method as you would with an article, or
• use the JoVE LTI in Brightspace to search for and add videos directly in the course
• use one of the embed methods below
  • JoVE Faculty custom cartridge
  • Embed JoVE videos

The advantage of using the JoVE LIT in D2L is that you can search for videos, add video content, and add quizzes all within your course shell environment.

Step 1. Open a content module within your course shell. Click on Add Existing Content and select JoVE LTI Tool.

Step 2: Select Videos and either browse the videos by topic or use the search bar.

Step 3.  Select a video for you course by clicking on the + sign and then click Submit.
