On Making A Video Lecture on iPad and Uploading to YouTube

While we are scrambling to take the courses we teach from face-to-face format to remote format, we all could use simple tools to make the process simple and easy to implement. I have created two extensive tutorials.
The first tutorial shows step-by-step instructions on screencasting your lecture with an iPad using any stylus, editing the video in the Imovie app of iPad, uploading it to YouTube, or directly to your LMS.
The second tutorial illustrates on how to embed any YouTube video to your Canvas LMS course content.
I have been recording and uploading the videos to my Canvas course since Spring 2019, but following the same procedure has been frustrating as it takes several hours for videos to process. I really can’t blame anyone; there is an unprecedented load to the servers.
That is the reason I created this alternative method tutorial on using 1) YouTube as a platform to upload and store your content and then 2) embedding the videos to Canvas.
This process works flawlessly as the videos are not stored on the LMS servers.
