How to add Panopto to your eClass course

To use Panopto from your eClass course, you will have to:

  • Add the Panopto block in your course
  • Add a link to your recording folder using Panopto activity

You must add the block to set up the link between eClass and Panopto. This will create a folder for your course in Panopto where your recordings will be added. Any Instructors in the course will get creator access in order to publish recordings to that course folder. Students will automatically get the rights to view the videos. The block will also provide students a quick way to access your course recordings.
