Placeholder Video - Default Video Override when assigning ONLY Files

How to Remove/Override Place Holder Video

If you assign Lessons from Courses or our YouTube API then the actual videos in that lesson will show.  If you assign "Files" only then the TeacherZone logo displays as a placeholder for the video.  You can override the TeacherZone video.  How do you override the TeacherZone Lesson Placeholder?  You can make your own and assign it.

Make your Own Lesson As Placeholder:

Here's how: Simply put in your "Place Holder" video as a Course/Lesson and share with your School then approve.  Then all teachers can search and use it as desired.  

Hint: Make the Name of the Lesson something easy for Teachers to Search when assigning.

1.  First Login as a Teacher Account (hint: many Schools create a teacher the name of their School for this type of content sharing).  Add a Course for your Placeholder and have the first lesson be whatever video you wish.

 

2.  Assign This Video Anytime you are NOT assigning from Courses/Lessons and only uploading files.

 

3.  Now Your Video Will Show with directions for the student and TeacherZone's video will not show.
