Introduction
LEARNscape is an easy to use, robust media platform that enables students, faculty, and staff, to view, record, upload, publish, search, and share video. It is safely contained within the SUNY Empire community, so you can think of it as our organizations' own YouTube. LEARNscape is also integrated with Brightspace, so creating and sharing video content with students has never been easier.
