Staff Guide: How to embed Panopto video into Course Content and Ultra Documents.
There are two ways of adding Panopto content to your course. The first is to add a link via Course Content, the second is to make a playable embed of your media in a Ultra document.
Adding Panopto media to Course Content
- Start by selecting the Plus button within a course.
- On the dropdown menu select the Content Market option.

- From Institution Tools select the Embed Panopto Videos in your course from the list.

- The Panopto LTI page will load. From here select the video that you wish to add to your course.

- Once content has been chosen, select the Insert button.

To play the video you just need to select the name, you can also press the three dots for the menu to edit the displayed name of the video.

Embedding video into Ultra documents
Embedding Panopto content into an Ultra document is great as you can use it to create enriched learning objects to compliment the Panopto content.
Ultra documents have blocks which allow information to be presented in more creative ways via the content editor.

- To start, select the Plus button where you want the video to be located.
- On the dropdown menu select Create.

- From here select Document.

- On the new page in the top left is the name for the document.
