The first thing to do is to go through your YouTube videos, and put them together a progression of video. Make sure those videos are organized in a compelling and correct arrangement in the form an playlist.

If, for instance, you're operating the YouTube video series in which you teach viewers how to get started with investing, you may be able to begin with a short video in which you discuss the amount you could invest. Then you can move on to opening your account by selecting an investment strategy as well as other options. This is the sequence of instruction that students receive in the course.

In the video below, of our class we've numbered our videos in order to simplify it.

Second step: upload the videos to the course creator wizard.

Make sure you duplicate the playlist's URL and not just the individual URLs. If you are on YouTube the easiest way to do this is by clicking"Share" or the "Share" button to share the entire playlist and clicking "copy" to copy the newly created URL.

Pro tip: The course creation wizard is compatible to create courses using both public as in private YouTube playlists. For creating a course using your private playlist you need to connect your Google account to the Google application, which permits you users to view the content of the private playlist at once however no data is stored.

Select the load the data to play your playlist. From here, choose your access settings to the course and click "create this course."

Step 3: Write Your Final Edits Before You Get Your Course Started

By default, each video begins a new lesson to the course. Every lesson's content is derived directly from YouTube the video's descriptions. If you'd like to modify the content, you'll be able to do that easily by editing the content.

There are numerous other options to tailor your Lesson pages , or transform videos into a full class experience.

  • Include Lesson Materials. Turn to "Lesson Materials" if you'd need to include material including notes from lectures or transcripts to the video.
  • Encourage participation. If you want learners to engage, make comments available for post or add a bbpress forum in the course. Set up threads specific to each lesson in order to promote discussions.
  • You can create polls, quizzes, and other quizzes. One of the most effective ways to integrate an exam at the conclusion of each lesson is to use the quizzes feature.
