Kaltura/My Media is a media library, similar to YouTube, used for the storage of videos, audio files, and media from other streaming services used for educational and non-educational purposes. The media library integrated within Canvas makes access to media and media sharing quick and easy. Anyone at UWEC can use and access Kaltura/My Media as well as use the media recording programs available, even if you are not creating or sharing media for a specific class. Media saved within Kaltura/My Media are only accessible by the creator unless shared via URL or within a Canvas course. It is supported by LTS and UW System Administration staff.
