Student assessments with Panopto

Panopto can be used for student assessments, both in a “Presentation” format or by uploading a video or audio file that they have created and edited through an external program.

Students may record into an assessment folder or their “My Folder”. All instructions for use are the same as for staff, except for provisioning a Blackboard course for use with Panopto.

Information for Tutors

Note: These are our generic instructions as the recording process is the same for students and staff. Students will only be able to edit videos that they uploaded themselves. If working in groups the original uploader will need to sign into Panopto.
