What is YuJa?
YuJa is a media management system with many facets: it’s a place to store and share videos, a screen-recording program, a lightweight video editor, an auto-captioning service, and an in-video quizzing tool. Primarily, instructors use it to collect and organize their video resources, like Lecture Capture or recorded Zoom meetings.
