Can I watch recordings of my classes?

Introduction

The Interactive recordings are a feature available to you and allows you to watch playback of every virtual classroom session (if you participated as a registered user. 

In case you’re a student, you there are two possibilities:

Case 1: If you participate in a virtual session as a registered user you may see all your session recordings from the Virtual Classrooms menu. There you will see a list of all your past sessions. 

Firstly, select the room you want to see by clicking on the room number.
Then you will see a “Play recording” button, which will allow you to watch the session. If you don’t have the option of playing recordings, please have in mind that the admin may have disabled them.

Case 2: In case you participate in a virtual classroom session as a guest (no registration required), you will not have access to a recording of your lesson, since watching one requires account access. 


You must first log into your account in order to access the recordings.

Find my recording

To access the interactive recordings, go to the Virtual Classrooms menu and find the lesson you want to watch. Click on the room’s title and then click on Play Recording. More information in the Virtual Classrooms article here.

Bookmarks in your recording

Good practice tip:
During your class, if there's something particularly interesting that was said and you want to "bookmark" it, just add a Keypoint in the class.

That way, when you watch your video playback, you can jump straight to the sections that you bookmarked.
