I Want my Students to Record Video Presentations and Upload them to Canvas

  • If you would like your students to record and submit video presentations, have them start and record a Zoom meeting without any other participants. They can record to cloud if they are sending a link. However, the cloud video option could take a long time to process the file before it is available for sharing. For a faster turnaround the students might want to record to local computer and upload the file to the Canvas Assignment. Note: If a video file is too large for Canvas to accept, students can upload it to UTbox and share it from there.
  • Here is a Zoom tutorial for getting started with video recording: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362473-Local-Recording

Closed Captioning
Closed caption allows the host, another meeting attendee assigned by the host, or an integrated third-party closed captioning service (Zoom Help Center link) to add closed captioning in a meeting. In a webinar, closed captioning can be typed by the host, co-host, a panelist assigned by the host, or an integrated third-party closed captioning service. Closed captioning can also be viewed while in Zoom Rooms.

Live Transcription
If you are unable to provide captioning, Zoom also provides AI-powered live transcription for all paid accounts. This can be enabled by the host, and any participants can view the captioning as needed. Live transcription only supports English and it is recommended that you speak clearly for best results.
