Making a pre recorded video for your lessons using Teams or PowerPoint

screen recorder

Top Tips:

• Create the screen recoding in a Team you trust. EG: Your Teaching and
Learning staff Team. This prevents students from seeing your practice
recordings. This will then save into your Microsoft Stream for you to share
the hyperlink.
• Alternatively use PowerPoint to create a video that you can save onto
your computer. You will then need to upload this into your class Team to
share it.
• Create a script to read from.
• Go easy on yourself! It takes about 4mins of editing time for every 1min of
quality content. Have a clear map of what you want to achieve in our
video.

Become the star of your subjects by creating pre recorded instructions that all
students can use to help them learn, wherever they are!
