Teaching Resources and Support: Video resources

Kanopy in Canvas

Instructors can create video playlists for assignments and supplemental material. Learn more about creating clips and playlists.

At the moment the way to embed videos into Kanopy is to use the embed code available for individual videos or clips. The embed code is available under the ‘share’ option for individual films or within the playlists feature. You then add it to Canvas within a new page, using the html editor.

Kanopy in Talis Resource Lists

You can also add links to full films on Kanopy in Talis resource lists using the usual bookmark extension (or manually for clips), as you would other websites

Showing a film in class

If you're a student or faculty member, you can use any Kanopy film in your class. Films with public performance rights (PPR) can be used for extracurricular events, like film clubs or social events. See here for more information
