3C Media Solutions

3C Media Solutions is a CCCCO grant-funded institution that offers multiple digital services to community college faculty and staff. With your free account, you can upload and share many types of files including documents, PowerPoint, PDF, MP3s, and all types of video. See the 3C website for a full list.
3C also offers “share links” a-la dropbox for your files. This makes putting large files into blackboard a matter of sending students the share link.
There are several How-To videos and FAQs on the 3C support site.

How would I use 3C Media Solutions?
There are many uses of this service. Here are a few scenarios that may be applicable:
-
Sending large files in an LMS
The Río Hondo LMS application has a file size limit. This is fine for most office documents but doesn’t always work for large PDFs, audio files, or video files.
You can upload individual files or a folder of files to your 3C account and send a download link via Blackboard.
You can upload audio or video and send students a link to view or listen to the media in their browser.
-
I don’t want everything on YouTube.
3C offers an alternative to YouTube. You can upload your videos and send students the links. There is no fear of sending them advertisements or getting caught up browsing the follow-up recommendations.
-
I use CCC-Confer and would like to share my recorded presentation.
3C has a relationship with CCC-Confer and they can automatically post your presentation upon request.
