TEL: Staff FAQ and Support

Post-Lecture Capture

Following the on campus session, and provided you have submitted your slides to the relevant administration team, you do not need to take any more actions.

Below are steps that explain how the lecture recording is delivered to students through the actions of the TEL team - you do not need to follow these steps.  

1. Editing

Once the lecture has been successfully recorded, it will be edited by a member of the TEL team using Panopto.

What is edited in the recording?

The TEL team will edit the lecture to eliminate any long pauses or background noise as students enter and leave the lecture theatre. If you have any editing requests for the TEL team then please get in touch.

2. Captioning

After editing, the recording is moved to the captions folder. The captions team will then correct any mistakes in Panopto's automated captions.

3. Upload for students

The TEL team will upload the recording to Canvas, the university's Virtual Learning Environment. Lectures are uploaded within 48 hours of the initial session date

Single Best Answer (SBA) Questions

You should ensure that your lecture content is assessed appropriately by providing your System or Year Lead with five Single Best Answer (SBA) questions, each year, for each lecture you deliver.

Guidance on how to write SBA questions is provided in a short Panopto recording below, created by our Deputy Director of Assessment.

You will need a Panopto account to access this. If you do not already have one, please request one from your Year Administrator.
