Don't forget to hit record!

If possible, it is recommended that you record any live course sessions, to allow access for those who were not able to attend, had technical difficulties, or perhaps were unable to access the tech required to attend. This is, of course, a personal decision – thank you for considering it. Additionally, if you have PDFs or other annotated files, these could be shared with your class as well (pre- allows them to follow along; post- allows them to review).

How to record using your Webinar tool:

1. Bb Collaborate: If you recorded your session (see “How do I record a Bb Collaborate session?”), it will appear automatically under the “Bb Collaborate > Recordings” menu in your course. To access your recordings, see “How do I access my Bb Collaborate Session Recordings?” If you want to make the recording available for download, you have to enable this before you record (see, “How do I make my Bb Collaborate recording available for download?”).
2. Other webinar tools (e.g. Zoom): If you are using an alternate tool, it likely also will provide a recording feature. Once done with your session, you'll upload this recording file to a video streaming service (like UofT's MyMedia or Microsoft Stream). Please do not upload video files directly to Quercus; not only will this use your course quota, but it also causes extra pressure on the platform (which is not designed for the intense server needs of streaming large files at this large scale).
