Classroom Lecture Capture with Panopto
Lecture capture means recording classroom-based activities in a digital format that students can then watch over the web, on a computer, or on a mobile device. Lecture capture technology records the presenter’s audio and video, as well as any visual aids – laptop, tablet, whiteboard, document camera, visualizer – synchronizes them, and archives the recorded content for on-demand playback. Panopto, the lecture capture tool adopted by Georgetown University, facilitates rich media capture and delivery for courses at the Law Center.
