Students' Panopto Assignments
Panopto allows for student-created videos and multi-media presentations as homework assignments or course projects. Instructors can review the videos and provide comments and feedback directly in the recording. The course must already be configured before a Panopto assignments folder can be created. If you want the assignment to show in the 鈥渘eeds grading鈥� section of your gradebook, you will need to create an assignment submission area in your course, as you normally do. Provide clear instructions to students for submitting and uploading their video. If needed, contact IDA for assistance and additional training.
