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

These settings will allow anyone who obtains the link for any recordings made from the host account viewable. This is not recommended for all circumstances but can allow for access to remote students or UT affiliates. 

Any questions or concerns can be submitted to vc-trouble@mccombs.utexas.edu for further clarification.
