Instructions using Discussion Board (Forums or Weeks)
Just have students embed videos they create into Discussion Board posts using the Kaltura tool,
or copy/pasting a link from a video they uploaded to Drexel Streams into a Discussion Board post.
You can set 1 or more Discussion Board forums on the Discussion Board page to be gradeable.

You have to edit the options for each forum individually. :-(
