Multimedia


Texas A&M University provides two learning technologies to help you integrate large files and multimedia assets; and create collaborative spaces to enhance the student experience within your course.


Adding files, media, and other external resources to cloud-based storage options, including Google Drive, Microsoft Office 365, and Mediasite, can benefit the student experience in many ways. Using cloud-storage solutions offers more flexibility for how and when students access course resources. This allows students to concentrate more on the resources offered to enhance learning rather than the technical issues that may become barriers to access.

Mediasite is Texas A&M University’s standardized streaming media system that provides either public or private access to video and audio content. Mediasite integrates with Canvas.

The primary objective of the project is to replace the VPR-IT’s MediaMatrix system, which will be decommissioned, with Mediasite for all relevant existing and future academic streaming media content.
