This guide shows you how to submit a Panopto video assignment in your MyDundee module. The most common reason for doing this is to allow students to submit the assignment to the instructor for a grade.
This guide will cover how to record an assignment, and how to post the video directly to the module instructors.
Panopto provides students with a flexible set of tools to capture, edit and distribute video content for a wide range of educational purposes, from assessment to capturing events.
It is integrated into My Dundee and can be accessed directly for those wishing to manage and distribute video more widely. The service is easy to use, accessible and supports the growing need to support rich digital media in our educational experience.
Step 1: Locate and open the Assignment in your My Dundee Module.
Select Start attempt from the right-hand menu.
Step 2: When prompted to submit a video assignment, navigate to the relevant section and in the text editor that appears click + insert content and select External Apps from the dropdown menu.
Step 2 (Optional): If you have been instructed to submit a supporting document such as a PowerPoint or Word document then click on the paperclip icon. Select your file/s and click on Save.

Your Panopto site will open in a new window with three options: Choose, Upload and Record.
