Since narrating Powerpoint files is a common way to create videos for courses, this blog post will illustrate two workflows for how to practice this so share with your students.

The Production Stage: Powerpoint

The showtime step is to create your slide presentation in Powerpoint.

Then, when you're gear up to record, click on "slide show" and and so "record slide show". If y'all are creating the video for the first time, select the pick to record from the beginning.

Powerpoint will give you a 3 second countdown and and so you may begin narrating your presentation. On the top left you'll see the recording controls, and at the bottom y'all'll run into tools like the pen and highlighter. Your markings volition be recorded.

You'll see I underlined the give-and-take "video" – which was the all-time I could exercise since my circles are rather squiggly.

One you lot're done, click on the stop button.

If you need to re-record over a certain slide only don't want to re-record the entire presentation, you tin can cull to tape from the electric current slide. This will supersede the sound that currently is stored there with new audio.

The Sharing Stage

To create a video file from your recorded narration, go to the file card and choose Export. Then choose "Create a Video".

This creates a video file. At present, you have three choices. Yous tin upload the video file to Echo360, to Canvas Studio, or to Ensemble.  From any one of these video platforms, your video can be connected to Sheet.

Well, yous might choose to use Echo360 equally your video liaison if you employ WPI'south lecture capturing service, or if yous already are an Echo360 user. Or, you might choose Canvas Studio if you want a system that integrates easily with Canvas and allows for comments and questions.

Sharing with Echo360
