Course Sizes

  • Blackboard Disk usage has reached its licensed allotment. We have a number of Courses that are over 10 gb in size. We will be reaching out to those who have large course sizes. A reminder to those teaching this term to use Kaltura for uploading videos. This includes student video assignments. The following link will take you to UFV Mediaspace, Teaching and Learning videos using Kaltura.
  • Add for your students a course weblink on "how to" submit a video assignment

Kaltura ( Video Management System)

  • If come across Videos that view “ACCESS DENIED" for course embedded videos, Faculty are encouraged to re-embed the videos in the course if needed. For Assistance, please use the Report a Kaltura Issue form.

Course Archiving

What do I need to know?
UFV has moved to a 2 year course availability in your Blackboard environment. This will help to keep our file storage limits within our license agreement with Blackboard. 

What does this mean for me?
All courses outside of 2 years will be archive from your Blackboard Faculty course lists. Archiving means all courses will be backed up and saved on UFV servers.

What do I need to do?
If you want to keep or restore a copy of a course from any of these terms, there are two options:

  1. Save a copy of the course on your computer or UFV OneDrive. Faculty tutorials are available to help with exporting, archiving, and importing a course. For further assistance with this step, please contact askTLC@ufv.ca.
  2. Submit a Course Restore/Recovery Request to restore a course from UFV archive at any time. We will restore the course so that you can course copy what you need and then delete it from your list.
