Panopto Videos – Ultra

Panopto Videos – Ultra

Panopto Lecture Capture is the system used by the American College of Greece for live lecture capture and creating pre-recorded course material.

The service allows you to record, edit, share, and stream video, audio, PowerPoint presentations, and screen-capturing content for various audiences such as staff, faculty, and students. It stores and manages the recordings using a cloud-based content management storage system. Panopto lecture capture is integrated into Blackboard Learn and thus it allows you to record and use the recordings from within the Blackboard environment.

 

Uses of Panopto Lecture Capture

  • Lecture recordings to enhance students’ or colleagues’ learning experience.
  • Flipped Classroom recordings with pre-recorded sessions with notes and subjects to allow preparation for the next lecture and assist discussions and feedback.
  • Conference/Discussion recordings to share with a wider audience or promotional tool.
  • Training Video recordings are to be shared with colleagues and students.

Upload files

You can upload files from the folders you have on your computer. There are two options:

  1. Drag and Drop
  2. Upload from Folders

The following photos represent the drag-and-drop method.

 

Note: The videos you have originally recorded to the Blackboard Original may not be transferred to the Ultra version. So you will have to download them from the Original view and upload them with the drag-and-drop method (The folders of Bb are from the current version so they do not connect with the original one) to the Ultra version.
