Panopto – UA’s lecture capture system.

Panopto allows instructors to record lectures and automatically upload them to the Course Videos area of a Blackboard course. These recordings most commonly consist of voice capture through the classroom microphone, and screen capture of the lecturer’s computer screen.

Once uploaded, recordings are available to students via streaming online, or through the Panopto mobile app. Students are also able to capture their own recordings and upload to Panopto. Panopto is available in most UA classrooms and available to download to personal computers.
