Following the changes made to the unit codes as part of the SLSP project we are currently investigating a problem where the search functions will not return results for the new unit code catalogs.

There are two ways we would recommend reusing or adding recordings in to Blackboard  –

Add Presentation tool –

• Navigate to the content area in the Blackboard course where you would like to add the recording
• Ensure Edit Mode is ON and then select Build Content
•  Select Mediasite – Link to presentation(s)
•  Enter the name of the presentation you wish to add and select Search Presentations
•  tick the box to the left once located and then Submit
•  Click OK
•  The recording will now be at the bottom of the page and can be moved as required.

Embedding –

•  Open Blackboard and select the My Re/Play Tab
•  Scroll down and select Share Presentation
•  Select Copy if you want to add a link or select Embed and then Copy if you wish to add a responsive video player
• Navigate to the content area in the Blackboard course where you would like to add the recording
• Ensure Edit Mode is ON and then select Build Content
•  Select Item
•  Give the Item a Name
•  To add a link simply paste in to the editor and add descriptive text so your students know what they are looking at and select Submit
•  To Embed Select HTML from the bottom row of icons in the editor. If you can not see this click the arrows in the top right. Paste in your Embed code and Update
•  Add anything else you want in to the text editor and select Submit

If you do need to add a recording to the catalog for the 19/20 academic session please email digital-education@bristol.ac.uk and we will be able to assist.
