Panopto: Moving Videos to a Course Folder for Faculty

Description 

Adding your videos to the course Panopto Folder will allow you to use the Panopto icon in the editor to embed videos into pages. If your videos are uploaded directly into Moodle ISU, you may need to remove them in order for your course to fit within the 500 MB storage limit in ISU Canvas. Note: If your videos are not directly uploaded to Moodle ISU, you are not required to move them to Panopto.
