Classroom Capture Best Practices
The following best practices can ensure effective and successful captures.
- Be aware of the video and audio capture zone, and remain where you can be seen and heard on the captured video.
- Repeat questions from students so the question is captured in the audio recording.
- Keep the podium computer turned on throughout the capture to make sure the presentation is recorded properly.
- Employ strategies to encourage student attendance and viewing of webcasts.
