Panopto Class Session Recording (via Moodle)

During the 1st semester, we have been using the Panopto service provided by CUHK. Please note that starting from 2nd semester, we are switching to use our own subscribed version of Panopto (CUSCS Panopto). Below are a few highlights on the changes:

 

  1. Teachers could only access the new CUSCS Panopto via Moodle (i.e. single sign-on via Moodle).
  2. The previous sets of username (e.g. SCS-A147) and URL (i.e. cuhk.ap.panopto.com) should NOT be used again.
  3. You don’t need to wait for ITS to send you the video links and put it on Moodle manually. Videos recorded will be AUTOMATICALLY listed on the Moodle Course Page. (If you want to record a video but only wish to publish it at a later time, please select ‘My Folder’ before you start the recording. The ‘My Folder’ is a private folder which is only accessible to you. For details, please refer to Part A Step 13 of the attached user guide).
  4. Trimming of videos could be done via Panopto’s Video Editor.
  5. Teachers could upload other video / audio files to Panopto and share with students.

 

The User Guide and Demo Video on Panopto recording are listed below. You can follow the steps to access Moodle and then record videos using Panopto Recorder at home. If you wish to come back to learning centres to use Panopto in classroom, please contact your Programme Administrators for reservation of classroom.

 

 

 

Online Class

Depends on the needs, you can perform online class by using Panopto webcasting or Zoom.

 

Panopto webcasting (via Moodle)

 

Zoom

Apart from Panopto, we would also like to introduce another application ‘Zoom Meeting’ to you. Unlike Panopto, Zoom could provide more interactivities with students, e.g. students can speak through student’s devices, teachers pass the control to student for sharing student’s screen/voice (student presentation).  

 

Teachers of PCE Programmes can use a free Zoom account that is registered by themselves.  For details, please refer to Part B-sign up a Zoom free account of Zoom User Guide.  For FREE Zoom account, there is a time limit of 40 minutes for each online session with students (more than 1 student).
