Guide for learners to record with Panopto

Recording to a Panopto Assignments folder

Once a teacher has created an Assignments subfolder into course Panopto folder, students will have the right to install Panopto recorder and record or upload videos to that folder. By default, only the lecturer can see the recordings in the Assignments folder, and the learners can only see their own recordings. By default, videos of other students stored in the Assignments folder are not visible (the teacher can change this setting if necessary).

  1. When using Panopto recording for the first time, log in to Panopto https://panopto.ut.ee and install the Panopto recorder (Windows or Mac) on your computer. If you need help with installing the Panopto recorder, contact arvutiabi@ut.ee or phone 7375500.
