Active Learning Platform
Video-Powered Interactive Education Solutions
Panopto’s education video platform helps you incorporate more active learning into your courses.
Transform Student Engagement with Our Active Learning Platform Technology
Interactive Quizzes, Polls, and Discussion Features Built Into Every Video
Every educator knows that experience is the best teacher. Whether it’s having students practice conversations in a foreign language course or role-playing patient interactions in a nursing program, students come to a new level of understanding when they’re challenged to demonstrate what they’re learning.
But there’s one thing that every educator needs to make active learning possible: time. Panopto’s video platform makes it possible to record and assess student presentations at scale, giving students the opportunity to practice critical presentation skills and get feedback without using up valuable classroom time.
“Some faculty members have begun to explore the use of video and desktop recording for student assignments. It’s a great tool for both our students and our faculty – one that fosters an interactive learning environment, and encourages self-discovery and continuous improvement.”
Nigel Robertson, Head of eLearning, Waikato University
Create Interactive Video Content with Advanced Active Learning Platform Tools
Easy-to-Use Video Editing with Clickable Hotspots and Branching Scenarios
Panopto helps you engage students in your digital course materials. Panopto’s unique interactive quizzing feature makes it easy to add multiple choice, multiple select, true/false, and fill-in-the-blank questions directly into your videos to test comprehension or poll viewers. It’s also a great way to reinforce key concepts, improve knowledge retention, and to kick-start upcoming in-class activities.
Panopto’s video players allow for a more interactive viewing experience, too. Students can take notes that are saved as personal bookmarks, speed up and slow down video playback, and even search for any word spoken or shown in the video and instantly jump to a specific, relevant moment as they are studying.
Free Up Class Time for Active Learning Through Automated Video Lectures
Pre-Record Content Delivery So Classroom Time Focuses on Application and Discussion
To create more time for active learning in the classroom, teachers are embracing the flipped classroom pedagogy, in which students watch recorded lecture videos prior to class.
With Panopto, it’s easier than ever to flip your lectures and free up class time for active learning. Panopto includes an app for recording your lecture along with slides and screen content in a side-by-side view designed to improve student engagement. Your students can stream recorded lectures on any device before coming to class, which means class time can be devoted to practicing and digging deeper into new concepts covered in the recording.
“Now instructors are recording their lectures ahead of time, putting the recording up on Blackboard, and then changing the dynamic of what would have been the lecture slot. So they are using class time as more of a seminar-based interactive session.”
Tim Davies, Desktop Systems Manager, Information Services, Aberystwyth University
Deliver Immersive Video Experiences That Enhance Active Learning
360-Degree Videos, Multi-Camera Angles, and Virtual Reality Integration
Bring more of the outside world into your classrooms. Panopto makes it possible for educators to experiment with new and immersive video experiences that take students inside virtual simulations, demonstrations, and more.
Measure Student Engagement with Active Learning Platform Analytics
With Panopto, faculty can easily view reports that show which students watched each video, how long students watched videos before dropping off, and more. It’s valuable information that allows instructors to monitor student progress and identify specific moments where students are most engaged in learning.
