YuJa Getting Started
Accessing/Login to YuJa
There are two ways to log into the YuJa platform - Inside any Blackboard site or Outside of the Blackboard system. Faculty and staff should log in to YuJa through a Blackboard site first to create your YuJa account so that your account is created with appropriate permissions and storage.
See the Accessing YuJa help article for more information.
Getting Started Guide for Instructors
The Teaching Transformation and Development Academy has developed a guide to help instructors with the basics of using YuJa. To get started using YuJa, please review the Getting Started Guide for Instructors.
Getting Started within the Video Platform through Blackboard
The Getting Started within the Video Platform through Blackboard help article provides instructions on how users can start using the YuJa Video Platform within their Blackboard courses.
Download & Install the YuJa Software Station
No download is required to simply view video content on YuJa, but before recording a video with YuJa for the first time, you must download and install the YuJa Software Capture application for Mac/PC. Many features, including recording, are also available on the mobile app for phone/tablet. Using screen capture and/or your webcam and microphone, this application creates a recording which may be shared/viewed via emailed link, on Blackboard, or directly on the UND YuJa site. Please see System Requirements page for more information.
You will not need to install the YuJa Software Capture each time you want to create a recording, however, you will want to make sure you are using the most updated version. Using an older version may cause sync issues with your recordings. It is recommended to uninstall the older version and install the latest version for the best performance. If you are using a Windows computer, once you have updated to the latest version, you will receive a notification when there is an new version. This currently is not available on Mac computers.
For installation instructions, view the Download & Install help article.
