An introduction to Panopto, a lecture capture tool available for general use in Canvas
With the overwhelming necessity to engage students virtually, the use of icebreakers have become an important tool to get and keep students engaged. These interactive activities are not only fun but if utilized with intention, can be a valuable opportunity to promote inclusivity in your classroom, actively engage students, and honor their input to shape their learning environment.
New to Canvas? In less than an hour, learn some of the basics: uploading Files, organizing in Modules, creating Assignments (gradebook columns), and communicating with students (Announcements vs Inbox messages). We will wrap up with some helpful tips to save you time throughout the semester.
That One Thing… Canvas Edition (TOT) – Join us over the lunch hour for That One Thing… We will highlight ONE FEATURE in Canvas and take your questions (45min).

We will discuss how to use existing tools in Canvas to facilitate online/remote teaching. You may already be using Announcements and Discussions, but are you only using text when you could be using video? Zoom is great for real-time engagement, but did you know that Panopto offers your students the ability to search for text on slides, jot down notes, add feedback (discussions), and take self-check quizzes? Tie everything together in Modules and give your students a consistent experience from start to finish.
