Channels & Galleries

Another way to organize and share your media is by creating a Channel or a Gallery for it. You simply need to copy the url associated with it and send it to your audience.

A gallery will function as a category on the WashU MediaSpace site. It will appear as a tab on the page’s main header and can only be created by an admin on an as-needed basis. For more information on galleries, please email us at edtechtools@wustl.edu.

A channel is a collection of content curated by a subset of users. Channels can be created by any users by following these steps:
