Uploading Outside Video Files to Echo360

Externally created video content can be added to Echo360 through a manual upload process into your course section.  For example, faculty may  provide students with access to Zoom meeting recordings or a video file created by a separate program that is stored on your computer.  This additional guide walks faculty through a variety of resources that support how to share instructional video created by any program with students using Echo360. 

This process requires that you have already added a Echo360 course link to your Moodle course
