Panopto is an easy-to-use video hosting service that Canisius University has contracted with– think of it as a Canisius-branded, private, YouTube. With Panopto integrated into our D2L instance, instructors can use it all without the need to leave D2L. With it’s browser-based recorder, Panopto Capture, faculty can easily record quick lectures, introductory videos, and more. Take a look at some of the tutorials below to get started:
- Get Started with Panopto Capture
- Upload Videos recorded with another application
- Record a video using…
- the Add Existing Activities Tool (useful for adding videos as Activities in the Content Area)
- Insert Stuff Tool (useful for installing videos in News Items, Module descriptions, quiz questions, discussion prompts, etc.)
- Use Panopto for Student Video Submissions
- Create in-video quizzes for more interaction with a video
Additional Panopto tutorials can be found on the Panopto Wiki page. Faculty and staff interested in a more hands-on workshop should check out the Faculty Development Opportunities Wiki page.
