Setting up ClickView

ClickView is a 3rd party software solution, designed to assist learning in the classroom by providing a simple and complete solution for watching digital video and other digital media within a school. ClickView allows teachers and borrowers access to all of the digital video resources in the ClickView library. Using your hosted Reading Cloud Library System you can import ClickView data so that those resources show when a pupil is browsing the catalogue.

There are two different ways to configure ClickView, the online catalogue and a local server.

 

Online Catalogue

The first and most common method would be to purchase a subscription from ClickView for their hosted offering, providing access to the online catalogue of educational media the company has to offer. This would be achieved through contact with the ClickView team from their support page, this team would be best placed to provide the specific solution that meets your requirements. 

Once subscribed, the ClickView team will provide what is known as the “School ID”. This will be a series of numbers and letters which must be entered into the library system so that the ClickView resources can be imported.

To do this, access the management page of your Reading Cloud library system, from the menu bar at the top of the page select 'Settings' and then select 'Module Settings' and 'ClickView Settings'.

Enter the School ID into the box and click 'OK' to save. 

 

Local Server

The second method is to access an offline ClickView server, which again can be purchased via the ClickView team. This would allow you to create your own repository of educational media, which can then be vended to students.

Once you have carried out one of the above options and set up ClickView, you will need to Importing ClickView Media, once this is done you can then View the ClickView Media.
