Drop Box or Assignment folder for Student Recordings
- Holly Zakos
- Chris Harvey
All students that are registered for a course will automatically have view access to all the professor's videos that are in that course folder. But students cannot upload videos in the course folder.
You can change student access rights to allow students to create (IE add) Panopto videos by creating an assignment folder in your course. By default, only you and your individual student will be able to view the videos added to the the assignment subfolder in your course. A student will not be able to view another students videos unless permissions are updated.
Helpful Information about sharing folders:
Set Up Step 1: Create course assignment folder for your students
An assignment folder is a special subfolder (“course name [assignments]” ) that allows users that can view this folder to create and submit sessions privately. As a creator for this folder, a professor can see and control all content submitted to the assignment folder.
