How to download audio files, video files, and transcripts in Moodle

We offer a variety of options for streaming and downloading the educational content in our courses. Most participants who live in areas with satisfactory internet speed and availability will simply stream the Vimeo hosted videos embedded in the course modules. For those participants that live in areas with poor network speed and/or availability, it will be beneficial for you to learn the methods of downloading the lower resolution versions of the content that we provide directly below the Vimeo version for each video. In this article we will cover the step by step instructions for downloading the different content types in the modules.
