KSU Multimedia Applications

The Multimedia Team at Kent State University has developed several multimedia applications that are available for KSU faculty, staff, and students to use.  These applications include KSUTube, Multimedia Presenter, and KSU Dropbox.  As a KSU employee, you already have an account for each of these applications -- just use your Flashline username and password to log in.

KSUTube

KSUTube is an online video hosting service created and maintained by Kent State University staff.  It works very much like YouTube, in that you can upload digital video content and the server will convert it to streaming video for online viewing.  The benefits of using KSUTube are a) you already have an account; b) videos are stored on local KSU servers; and c) KSUTube provides many security options for your videos, including unsearchable videos and password protection.

KSU Presenter

KSU Presenter is an online tool used to create presentations, including narrated PowerPoints.  You provide all the pieces for the presentation and Presenter packages it all up into a streaming online video for your students to watch.  This tool has replaced Multimedia Presenter (MMP) and includes many new and useful features including group collaboration.
