YuJa - What is it?
YuJa is the USG eCampus licensed recording and streaming platform for faculty, staff, and currently enrolled students to publish and manage videos.
Users can record right from within their course or record elsewhere and upload. Multiple sources can be recorded all at once and integrated into a single video (screen + webcam, screen only, webcam only, or audio only recordings).
All items are stored in your own personal Yuja Media Library. Items can be shared inside our outside the course.
There are collaboration, commenting, editing, automatic and quizzing features all available also right within your course. Quizzes can be self-evaluations or graded.
Instructors are provided with automatic-captioning and detailed analytics.
