  1. Log in to https://audio-video.shanti.virginia.edu/
  2. Open the Main Menu again
  3. Click My Content, then My Collections 
    • You'll see a list of all the collections that belong to you
  4. Choose the collection which contains the video you want to embed
    • The collection will open
  5. Open the video you want to embed

    1. Select the course in which you wish to embed the video
    2. Select Resources from the Tools Menu on the left side of the page
      1. You should see a list of your courses

      1. Follow the prompts to name and create your new page.

    2. Paste your iFrame code
    3. Click Continue
      1. NOTE: After entering text or other content into the editor in UVACollab, we recommend using the Accessibility Checker to confirm that the content is fully accessible to all site participants. See How do I check my content for accessibility? for more information on the Accessibility Checker and instructions for checking content.

  8. To save your new page and notify your students that it exists:
    1. Enter a File Name for the HTML page in the box provided.
    2. If desired, add other details (e.g., a Description, Copyright Status, Availability and Access information).  For more information about optional file details, see:
      1. How do I add and display more information about a file or folder in Resources or File Drop?
      2. How do I hide Resources files and folders?
      3. How do I set the display of a Resources item to a specific time period?
      4. Notify site participants of the new HTML page
    3. You can choose to send an automatic email notification to site participants with a link to the file you have created.
    4. By default, No notification is sent.  Select High - All participants to send an email to everyone in your UVACollab site who can access the file.  Select Low - Not received by those who have opted out to send an email only to those who have chosen to receive Resources notifications in their preferences.
      1. Note: If the file is created in a folder that is only available to a specific group, only members of that group will receive the email notification.
    5. Select Finish.
      1. NOTE: if you need to update this page or add more content, return to your course Resources page, then select Actions next to the page you created and choose Edit Content
