DLC Summer 2020 Class Projects/Connie Mettillle
Project Details
This project is designed to help students within Professor Mettille's courses record Zoom Breakout sessions download and share videos via D2L Brightspace Assignment Submission Folders. In this resource, you will learn all about the process of recording in Zoom Breakout Rooms, locate recordings, uploading these recordings to MediaSpace, and share your videos to a D2L BrightSpace Assignment Submission Folder.
Recording in Zoom Breakout Rooms
During your group work in Zoom, you will need to record these sessions. These will be recordings that download to your computer locally (i.e., when you are in your professor Zoom meeting you do not have the option to record to the cloud). It is recommended to have two people from each group record so that you have a backup if the primary recording is lost or fails. The process of recording is a simple process of hitting the record button at the bottom of your Breakout Room and you will see Pause and Stop buttons replace the single record button. When you fish your recording will automatically download locally to your computer. This may go fast and many don't even see the prompts, but the following steps explain where your recording download to on your computer after you leave the class session.
- When you end your Zoom session Zoom will download the recording locally on your computer.
- To find the recording you will go to your Documents folder on your computer and locate a folder called Zoom.
- Within the Zoom folder, you will see a sub-folder(s) with all your session-folders (these are named by the date of your Zoom session).
- Within the session folders will be a file with the name Zoom_#.mp4 and this is your video file. This should be uploaded to MediaSpace.
