Web Streaming and Recording Lectures

Web Streaming and Recording Lectures in Panopto can be used to broadcast lectures live to a remote audience. It is a useful accessibility feature of Panopto for students who cannot physically attend lectures.  Open your Panopto Desktop Application, choose your folder, and check the Webcast box in the upper right corner before clicking Record. You can generate a "Waiting Room" link in advance to share with students via email or Blackboard before the session begins.
