Attention
all Students and Instructors of Streaming Video courses:
Please review the Policies
and Procedures document for important information.
Students taking courses via the streaming
video technology are able to view their lectures 24/7, can
view a lecture multiple times, download lecture notes, and
communicate with their instructors using Northeastern University's
Blackboard system.
What does the student need to do to access Streaming
Video:
In order to view streaming video classes,
you must be enrolled in a streaming video section of a course
and have a myNEU
account. You will then be able to access the Blackboard
system and your course. Please browse through our website
for more information that will help you understand the streaming
video process and contact
us with any questions you may have.
Basic information after registering:
Students gain access to the streaming video
lectures through their Blackboard account (either via their
myNEU account or http://blackboard.neu.edu/).
To view the streaming lectures, simply click on the appropriate
link on the Course page. (See "Recommended System Requirements"
under "Technical Information" for system requirements.)
When students log into Blackboard, the first
page, "My Institution," will show them what courses
they are enrolled in under the "My Courses" module.
It shows course number and title. The student clicks this
link and enters their course area. On the menu on the left,
click on "Streaming Lectures" and read the instructions
to view the streaming lecture.
The streaming video links are available and
posted to NU's Blackboard once the classes begin. The lectures
are captured and made available approximately 24 hours after
the live capture. For courses which were previously captured,
the lecture links are available on Monday of each week.
In the event of a Monday holiday, the lectures will be posted
on Tuesday of that week. Once a lecture is posted to Blackboard
it is available for a period of 3 weeks (unless otherwise
specified by the instructor).
If you need help with either myNEU or Blackboard,
contact the Northeastern University Help Desk at 617-373-4357,
or online help at http://help.neu.edu.
