A narrated presentation is a recording of a presentation (e.g. a PowerPoint presentation) with voice-over at the same time. You can also record yourself speaking so the viewer sees your slides and you delivering the presentation. Narrated presentations may be useful for recording lectures, student presentations, etc.
You can record a narrated presentation directly from your My Media page. To do this, you will need to install the My Media application called CaptureSpacecalled Kaltura Capture. Once you have made your recording, you can upload to your My Media library and embed it anywhere the Moodle text editor is available.
Your presentation slides (i.e. PowerPoint in .PPTX or .PPT format) need to be prepared in advance.
Note that you cannot download recordings of your narrated presentation.
The following instructions assume that you have already created a presentation and need to add the narration.
To learn how to make a narrated presentation, watch this video or read step-by-step instructions (below).
