The Kaltura Media Assignment allows for instructors to collect Kaltura media for viewing from students as an assignment in Spaces or Moodle. Note: The media is only viewable by the instructor but remains in the students’ My Media accounts and cannot be downloaded by the instructor.

Submitting a Kaltura Media Assignment
To begin, either create media with Kaltura Capture or upload a pre-existing media file to Kaltura:
When submitting media to a Kaltura Media Assignment:
- Navigate to the assignment and click the [Add media submission] button.
- A new window will open with all of your Kaltura media listed, select the appropriate media with the [Select] button.
- Wait for the media to load (preview shows the video and ‘play’ button), choose options such as including the title, description, etc, and click the [Embed] button.
- Note: If you do not wait for the media to load fully in this window, you will get an error upon clicking [Submit media]. If you did not wait for the media to load but have not yet submitted it, you can fix the submission by reloading the page in your browser and redoing the Embed steps.
