Mini manual - Using sources

Learn how to send analogue and digital sources to students with Play live, Copy live or Record live.

Background

In the Class view, under Sources, you'll find a list of possible analogue and digital sources that can be sent to the students in three different ways:
​

  • Play live only shows the source on the students' computers - they have no control.

  • Copy live shows the source to the students, not giving them any control at first. Afterwards, a copy opens automatically, granting the students control over the copy.

  • Record live will show the source to the students, while simultaneously recording their voices. Afterwards the students get the voice recording on top of a copy of the source.

Procedure

Proceed as follows to use a source:

  1. Under Sources, select the source you want to use:

    • Desktop: The students get to see a part of the teacher's screen.

    • Teacher PC: The students hear the sound coming from the teacher PC.

    • Webcam: The students get to see the teacher or one of their fellow students.

    • Microphone: The students can hear the teacher or one of their fellow students.

    • Media file: The students listen to an audio file.

  2. Set the options for the source to your needs:

    Tip: Check Booth camera if you want to record the student's webcam view while recording another source.

    • When using Microphone or Webcam check Student cam and select a source student in the drop-down list to use a student as the source.

  3. Click Start activity.
