Video content should not be uploaded directly to Blackboard, instead it should be uploading to the UHI Streaming Server. This service functions like an institutional version of YouTube, and videos from here can be integrated into module spaces on Blackboard or pages on Mahara.

The streaming server also serves as a location for the sharig of video content. Because all staff can upload to this space it is hoped that some of the videos can be used across different modules and even different courses. A general example of this could be videos on how to use the UHI referencing system created for one module could be shared on the streaming server and used in a different module. A more specific example is the possibility that videos created for a science module demonstrating a process, a technique or some equipment, could be used as part of engineering modules.

The reuse of high quality video content across programmes can add an extra dimension to a course and as part of the Flipped Classroom model can free up a tutor's time to engage in more dynamic activities and interaction with students.
