Earlier this week a friend asked me for some help sharing videos in Google Classroom. He wanted to share videos without having to upload them to YouTube. There are four options for doing that in Google Classroom. I’ve outlined all four in this short video. 

As a reminder, if you’re sharing videos that you found on YouTube, the process is just a simple copy and paste of the link to the video. And if you’re sharing videos that you uploaded to YouTube, the process is a simple copy and paste of the link to your uploaded video. But if you want to share a video that you made and you don’t want to upload it to YouTube then watch this video to learn how to do that. 

There are four options for sharing videos in Google Classroom without using YouTube. They all work in essentially the same manner but each option does have some small differences from the others. All four options are demonstrated in this video. The options are:

• Attach video file to an announcement in Google Classroom.
• Attach video file to a material in the Classwork section of your Google Classroom. 
• Attach video file to a question in the Classwork section of your Google Classroom.
• Attach video file to an assignment in the Classwork section of your Google Classroom.
