Re:View – Panopto Audio and Video (formative)

Assessment Type: Coursework

Below is the TEL recommended workflow for using Re:View (also known as Panopto) for audio and video recordings. Moodle is not recommended for audio and video as there is a 50mb upload limit on the platform.

If you are using Re:View for summative activity, then visit Re:View (Panopto) for audio and video recordings recommended workflow page. The guidance provided is for general use.

Roles in Moodle and Re:View:
In line with Moodle terminology, on this page teaching staff are referred to as Teachers. Students are referred to as Students. 
In line with Re:View terminology, on this page teaching staff are referred to as Creators. Students are referred to as Viewers.

Student video/audio file upload


Students can individually upload a video or audio recording to Re:View. This could be a presentation, instructional video, screencast, or oral submission.

Despite its name, the Re:View assignment folder does not have be used only for summative assessment – it can be used for formative assessment opportunities. The folder is simply a space that students can upload recordings to – similar to a Dropbox or OneDrive folder.  For example, students could upload:

  • Practise recordings before a summatively assessed piece of work.
  • A screen recording of an equation they are finding tricky.
  • An audio recording of themselves speaking in a foreign language for feedback on their accuracy.
  • A proposal for a project.

Recommended workflow:

  1. A Creator creates an assignment folder within a Moodle-linked folder in Re:View

In Re:View, navigate to the Moodle-linked folder for your unit. Within the folder settings, create an assignment folder. Staff and students should not keep assessed recordings in a personal My Folder in case they leave, are absent from the University for a length of time, or change job role.

2. A Teacher creates a link to the Re:View assignment folder for students as well audio/video upload instructions

On the Moodle page, a Teacher should create a link to the Re:View assignment folder that students are expected to upload to.

Instructions should be sent to students about expectations for uploading to the Re:View assignment folder. Include:

  • The file format.
  • Instructions about file length.
  • Guidance on creating a recording.
  • A further link to the Re:View assignment folder if appropriate.

3. Viewers upload recordings to Re:View assignment folder

Once a recording has been uploaded, students (Viewers) will not be able to see each other’s submissions. Creators can see all of the uploaded recordings in the assignment folder. The student who uploaded the recording can edit and/or remove it at any stage.

4. Creators watch the recordings

Recordings can be watched by navigating directly to the assignment folder in Re:View.

For formatively assessed work, Teachers can use a variety of methods for giving feedback. Consider using an offline Moodle assignment for individual feedback, or a Moodle forum or Moodle page resource for group feedback.
