The default setting for course folders is to allow students to download videos. This is a great option for students with limited or poor internet access as they may download the video and watch it without worry of interruption due to their internet quality. Even so, some faculty may wish to prevent their materials from being downloaded. If this is the case, then follow the steps below to disable video downloads for your course folder.
- Locate your course folder
- Navigate to the course folder settings by clicking on the “cog” icon in the top right corner of the course folder.
- In the “Settings” tab, you will see a row labeled “Enable podcast feed.” Unclick this setting to remove the download capability for the students.
- In the same window, verify that “Admins, videographers, and creator only” is selected for "Downloads enabled"
