About Lecture Capture Grades

Panopto (Selected teaching spaces)

The University will adopt Panopto, our new media enhanced learning (MEL) platform for video, audio and lecture capture, during the 2025/26 academic year.

During 2025/26, 22 teaching spaces will use Panopto for lecture capture. You will be contacted with more information via Minerva if you are scheduled to be taught in one of the rooms that will use Panopto.

From September 2026, Panopto will become the University’s new platform for accessing lecture recordings. This means all students will use Panopto instead of Mediasite to view recorded lectures and related content.

Mediasite (All Other General Teaching Space Rooms) 

The following applies to all other spaces that use Mediasite:

For bronze rooms: This room is set for lecture capture recording where voice, audio and the projected image are recorded. Use the lapel mic for optimal audio. Use the lectern button to pause / restart recording.

For silver rooms: This room is set for lecture capture recording where a video camera picks up the lectern and whiteboard area and also records voice, audio and the projected image. The camera image is a fixed forward facing wide angle view. The photo shows the view from the camera. Use the recommended font size when writing on the whiteboard. Use the lapel mic for optimal audio. Use the lectern button to pause / restart recording.

For silver plus rooms: This room is set for lecture capture recording where a video camera picks up the lectern and whiteboard area and also records voice, audio and the projected image. The camera image is a forward facing wide angle view as a default with the addition of a closer view when floor pressure mats are triggered at lectern/whiteboard position. The photo shows the view from the camera. Use the recommended font size when writing on the whiteboard. Use the lapel mic for optimal audio. Use the lectern button to pause / restart recording.

For gold rooms: This room is set for lecture capture recording where a tracking camera picks up the lectern, whiteboard and stage area. The system also records voice, audio and the projected image. The video shows the view from the camera at the lectern, at the whiteboard and the limits of pick-up in the stage area. Use the recommended font size when writing on the whiteboard. Wear the lanyard to enable camera tracking and for microphone. Use the lectern button to pause / restart recording.

For platinum rooms: This standard is applicable to collaborative lecture theatres only. This room is set for lecture capture recording where a video camera picks up the lectern and whiteboard area and also records voice, audio and the projected image. The camera image is a fixed forward facing wide angle view. The photo shows the view from the camera. In playback, the viewer can view multiple inputs at the same time (from multiple projected sources). Use the recommended font size when writing on the whiteboard. Use the lapel mic for optimal audio. Use the lectern button to pause / restart recording.
