Bright Ideas delivers video lessons (embedded on brIQht ideas) to participants via Vimeo. If you are using a work internet, there may be security issues that interfere with your access to one of our courses.
If your district/school has Vimeo.com blocked, it is still possible to enable the embedded Bright Ideas lesson videos so you can view a course. Please forward this information to your system/network administrator so they can setup the necessary access.
Also, Internet Explorer is not a supported browser when viewing videos.
Bright Ideas looks for the following resources to be accessible to determine if Vimeo is available:
https://player.vimeo.com/api/player.js and https://vimeo.com/api/oembed.json?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2F216580195&id=216580195&loop=false&autoplay=false
To enable access to Bright Ideas video lessons (embedded) for accessing our courses, please follow the steps below:
1. Unblock vimeocdn.com, vimeo.com/api, player.vimeo.com
2. Add vimeocdn.com, vimeo.com/api, player.vimeo.com as Allowed Referrers
3. Ensure your web filter allows secure (encrypted) requests from vimeo.com
4. Clear the browser cache (in chrome, safari etc.)
Please note that the above steps will still block your ability to access videos from vimeo.com directly and only allows you to access the Bright Ideas embedded videos.
As a workaround while your district works on access, you can try accessing the course on a different network (e.g. your cell phone using cellular data, or a home network).
