Embedding means enclose content and usually a photo, audio, or video file into Brightspace that has been published on a different page. Embedding means you will view the file from its original source, just like when you copy a url. You embed a file when you dont want a link to the original source in your text but want to see it directly. Brightspace will always embed media files even when you add a url. Embed codes can usually be found when clicking on a share button on a website (e.g. YouTube).
Upload a video from a location

You now get the options:
- This computer: this is where you search a file from your computer and upload it to a place in manage files.
- Course edition files: this is where you can link to files who already are present in the course.
