Videos can be viewed directly from the Panopto tool from a Bridges course menu or viewed from a personal or topical folder on the Panopto server RWU faculty and students can create videos by running Panopto Capture directly in their browser ( Chrome is recommended) or download and install the Panopto recorder locally on their home or office computer (Mac or Windows). Podcasts can be created on Panopto or served from Panopto as well. Videos created externally (for example using a smartphone or other video recording software) may also be uploaded to Panopto to be streamed online. Panopto is only available through Bridges. RWU has a site license for Panopto that allows faculty or students to easily create a narrated PowerPoint video, a screencast of anything on a computer screen with audio, or a video stream from a webcam (or any other video source attached to their computer like a document camera) into a video that can then be shared with students either within a Bridges course, a faculty website or even via e-mail. Panopto is a lecture capture application designed to capture, edit, and stream audio and video.
