What is Authenticated AU iTunes?
Faculty now have another secure means of delivering content to students. Each instructor of record will be able to upload podcasts that will be available only to students enrolled in his/her particular class section.
Can I combine two sections or different classes on one channel?
No; one class per channel only. This is a limitation of iTunes, and not something we have control over.
How do I get channel for my class on Authenticated AU iTunes?
Fill out the online form (link below). You will need the Banner CRN available at the top of the roster in Blackboard Toolkit for the class.
Submitting the online form will assure the AU iTunes Administrator that you have read and agree to the following:
- Auburn University Podcasting Policy
- Copyright Regulation Policy
- And I understand that:
- I cannot upload any copyrighted material.
- IMG and Apple will not back up my material, that I am responsible for keeping a backup copy of this podcast.
- I must obtain written permission from any person who appears in a video to use his/her image in a podcast.
- I cannot upload files over 1 gigabyte in size.
- I must provide an artist (author) and title for each podcast.
- These podcasts will be available only for the duration of the semester.
- Only students currently enrolled in a course will have access to these podcasts via the link in AU Access.
Please note: Only faculty may request the creation of authenticated AU iTunes courses.
Students do not have to fill this form out: If you're looking for your course in Authenticated iTunes: Log in to AU Access and click the AU iTunes icon on the My Courses channel. That will authenticate you to iTunes; it will open, and you should see your class in the top section.
Please remember: You MUST have the latest version of iTunes installed to be able to see the files in the Authenticated classes.
