Vidéo

• La vidéo est un très puissant outil à utiliser lors d'un cours Moodle,qui peut permettre aux étudiants, de rattraper une lecture où ils étaient absents, ou encore d'apprendre en suivant une vidéo de tutoriel, et même d'améliorer leur talent de communication en regardant des intéractions dans une langue étrangère.

Où héberger vos vidéos

• Quand c'est possible, il est préférable de déposer vos vidéos sur Moodle pour les héberger sur votre serveur afin d'en conserver le contôle complet. Cependant, si l'espace serveur ou la limite des tailles de fichiers vous en empêche, il est convénient d'utiliser des sites d'hébergement de vidéos tels que youtube [1] ou Vimeo[2]. Les vidéos de tels sites sont facilement insérées dans Moodle et peuvent demeurées privées si vous choisissez l'option de les maintenir privées.

Ways of displaying video

Linking to a video online elsewhere

• If your video is hosted elsewhere online (such as youtube) you can simply link to the relevant page by choosing Add a resource>URL and pasting in the relevant link.
• For more information, see URL
• Note that, in an establishment where certain video sharing sites might be banned, your students might not be able to access your video through Moodle.

Uploading a video for students to download

• Choose this option if you wish to upload your video to Moodle and give users the option to download it to their own computers.
• Choose Add a resource>File
• For more information, see File
• Note that the way the video will display depends on the software the user has on their own computer. This could mean that some students might be unable to view your video. (See this discussion here)

Embedding a video in its own player

• Moodle has an inbuilt video player called Flowplayer. If multimedia filters are enabled by the administrator, videos embedded into the text editor will play inline in Flowplayer.
• Anywhere that Moodle's TinyMCE text editor is available, it is possible to embed a video, for example in a label or a page, a course topic summary, a quiz description or a lesson.
