Access Swank and Kanopy: Difference between revisions

== Distribute films from either Swank or Kanopy ==

For '''Kanopy''', click on the Kanopy link on the [https://sites.google.com/riverdale.edu/rcs-boocock-library/home Boocock Library website], which will take you to Kanopy and log you in using Google (so you will need to be logged into your Riverdale Google account). All of the films we have available are listed on the front page. Simply click on the film you would like your students to watch, and then click the "Share" button just below the video window. Copy the share link, and send it to your students or paste it into Schoology.

For '''Swank''', click on the Swank K-12 link in Okta, which may log you in automatically using Google (so you will need to be logged into your Riverdale Google account). If you are not automatically logged in, please click "Sign In With Google". Then search for the film you would like your students to see. If it says "Request" next to the title, then the film has not yet been booked in Swank, and you should touch base with Matthijs van Mierlo, Matt Ringh, and/or LaShawn Ross to inquire about the booking. If it says "Watch" next to the film, then it is available, and you can click the "Share" button. From the resulting dropdown menu, select "Copy Direct Link". You can send that link to your students, or paste it into Schoology.

== Paste Film Links into Schoology: ==

In Schoology, Click on the '''''Add Materials''''' dropdown menu, and then '''''Add File/Link/External Tool''''':

Then Select '''''Link''''':

Then paste the link into the '''''URL''''' box, and give the link a '''''Title'''''.<br />

Instead, click the small, white button with the "ABC" on it, and '''''Display in Schoology''''' will change to '''''Display in New Window'''''.

Once you have that set correctly, you can '''''Add''''' your link, and it should work.
