How-to Instructions

There are slight differences between searching for videos using Sage Research Methods and in the Social Work collections.

In Sage Research Methods, search for videos by selecting Watch methods come alive. The subsequent window will allow you to limit your search to research videos. 

In Sage Video Social Work Collection, use the drop-down menu and select videos to limit your search to audio-visual content. 

 

 

Here is a basic introduction to the tools available within the video detail screen. Again, there is a slight difference between Research Methods and Social Work collections regarding the location of the tools list: The toolbar is above the video transcript in Research Methods, and below for Social Work collection. Below is an example video from the Social Work collection. To get here:

  • Search for videos. Please refer to instructions above. 
  • From the list of results, click on a video's Title to view the details page.

  1. Click/tap My Profile to create playlists; if you don't have a profile, you can create one here.
  2. Click/tap Add to list to create a playlist of videos. You’ll need to be signed in to create your profile. 
  3. Click/tap CREATE CLIP to create a short video segment if you want to focus on one section of the film.
  4. Click/tap Download PDF to get a transcript of the video. The transcript will advance in sync with the video; you can click/tap any section of the transcript to advance the video to that section. You can also download a copy of the transcript as a PDF file.

  6. Click/tap Embed to get the code you need to copy and paste for embedding a video within a web page.

  4. In the pop-up dialogue box, click/tap COPY TO CLIPBOARD to obtain a permanent link for the video.
  5. Using your preferred web editor to create a link on your web page, paste the given permalink text as the URL in question.

If you want to focus on one section of a video, you can create a clip that can be shared:

  • Search for videos. Please refer to the Overview tab. 
  • From the list of results, tap/click a video’s Title to view the details page.
