Record Lectures for Blackboard

July 6th, 2011 by lvankle

Q. I will need to miss a couple of sessions of my Fall 2011 class. Is there any way I can pre-record and upload a lecture for students to listen to in my absence? 

A. If you are using Powerpoint slides, Articulate will allow you  to record your slides and narration and save your presentation in a compressed format that will be easier for students to access than if you record directly into Powerpoint. Articulate is available in the Digital Media Room in the Granada Center and Loyola faculty can reserve the room and get assistance with recording by emailing blackboard@luc.edu. Instructions for recording can be found at Narrating Powerpoint in Articulate 

Another option for recording a lecture is Wimba Live Classroom, which gives you the option to record your slides and narration directly into Blackboard. You can find instructions for recording and posting at  Record a Presentation with Wimba Live Classroom .
