Creating and Sharing Collections

Quick intro:

A "collection" can be used to keep a list of courses and videos that you plan to complete, or share with others.

B. Faculty can develop customized learning paths for their students by creating a "collection" of videos. They can then share this collection with students via email, a D2L embed iFrame, and/or social media sites.

C. To view your current or shared collections, click the profile dropdown in top right of the page and click "Collections"

Sharing Collections

LinkedIn Learning allows you to share Collections with colleagues and friends.

To do this, follow the directions below:

1. Find a collection you would like to share. When you open the collection, the menu below is on the far right side.

2. Click "share" and you will see the options to:

• share with "all LinkedIn members" - this will allow anyone on LinkedIn to see this collection of content.
• If you choose to share with members of "Dakota State University", all students at DSU will be able to see this video and content.
• When you don't want others to see what you are working on, just select "ony visible to you"

3. If you want a link to your collection, copy the code from the "share" window.
