## Add a Video to an Assignment or Discussion

Once your video is in YuJa, it is ready to be added anywhere in the course where you have an **Insert Stuff** link, like in an Assignment or Discussion.

1. To insert your video into a Discussion, click on the **Discussions **tool in the top navigation bar of your course.
2. Click Start a **New Thread** in your desired Discussion Topic.
3. Click the **Insert Stuff** icon (in an Assignment, you would find this in the text box when you are about to submit).
4. Choose the **YuJa **link from the menu list.
5. Scroll down and click on the video you wish to share.
6. Click the **Insert Content** button in the bottom right.
7. Your YuJa video is now embedded, and you can post your Discussion or submit your Assignment.

## Link to a Video in Your Media Library

If you need to include a YuJa Lumina video in a file submission to an assignment folder, you can get a direct link for your video and paste this link into the document you will upload. 

1. Go to your course, select **More Tools **and choose YuJa from the drop-down menu.
2. Hover over the video you want to share and choose the **More... **option.
3. In the left navigation pane, choose **Links **from the menu.
4. Copy the **Direct Link** option and paste it into your Word document, or any other area where you need to include a direct link to your YuJa video.
