This is simple guide to provide instructions on launching panopto via canvas. This method also ensures that, a recording is being recorded directly into a module folder in canvas.

We would always suggest that when recording, think about chunking. Even if your content is longer, you want to ensure students are engaged throughout. You could break your learning into topics, themes, concepts, tasks - ensure they are named correctly if you wish to 'chunk' your content down.

1. Login into canvas.sgul.ac.uk
