Classroom Capture @ Umass Overview

• Classroom Capture means recording your computer’s screen, with your audio synced with the on-screen action.

• Record PowerPoint slides, web pages, screen drawings, etc. Anything on your screen will be recorded.

• The audio of your lecture is recorded through a microphone and synced with the video.

• There is no live-action video of you, personally. Only your screen and your voice are recorded

• Watch a demo!
