Video Assignments

Moodle and Panopto integration

The facility to submit large video files for summative assessment is becoming critical for numerous courses at CSM. This 3-step process outlined below utilises the integration of Moodle and Panopto. To find out more please contact the CSM Digital Learning Team 

1. Setting up a Panopto assignment submission in Moodle 

The process is very similar to setting up submissions in Moodle however some of the settings are different. Differences include: 

  • Use the Moodle assignment tool, not Feedback Studio (Turnitin) 
  • Submission types should be set to Online text 

Please note that the Panopto block also needs to have been provisioned. 

2. Creating assignment submission folders in Panopto 

This is a multi-step process which requires some knowledge of Panopto. The process includes: 

  • Set up multiple folders including one for on time submissions and one for late submissions, EC and ISA. 

Please note that Panopto folders need to be closed manually otherwise students can continue to submit via Moodle passed the submission due date.  

3. Student submissions 

Submitting a video follows a similar process to submitting a text document however it is crucial that the video is placed in a specific folder. It the student fails to do this then the video will be very difficult for anyone marking the work to locate. 

To mitigate students uploading their file to the wrong folder it is suggested that submission instructions highlighting the specific folder be linked to the Moodle assignment brief/submission area.
