Recording a physical lecture in the classroom

To record a physical lecture with students present, MN recommends that you use "Lecture recording", UiO's solution for recording and publishing lectures. The solution captures the lecturer's voice and screen ("screencast") and publishes automatically in the Schedule on the semester page. Publishing such a screencast does not require the consent of anyone in the audience.

"Lecture recordings" only work on UiO-powered machines, not on Macs or private laptops.

How do i use "Lecture recording"?

In MN's auditoriums, "Lecture recordings" are pre-installed on all fixed PCs. Look for this icon on the computer desktop:

See instructions for using "Lecture recording". You can also use "Lecture recording" on a UiO-operated laptop. See instructions for installation on a laptop in the link.

How do I record with Mac and private laptop?

The recording solution "Lecture recording" does not work on Mac / private laptop. To create a "screencast" (lecturer voice and screen) on Mac, we recommend the following solution:

You can also use the recording function in Zoom when creating a screencast of a lecture, for example if you have a private laptop.

NB: Remember that the recording must be published in the course timetable (see the section "Publishing the recording" below)

Stationary recording box in the classroom (Cynap)

For advanced users who need to conduct a video recording, etc., you can use the recording solution Cynap (a physical recorder mounted in the classroom). Check the "Schedule system" to see if Cynap is installed in the room you are going to use.

NB: Cynap supports video recording, so when using it, you must familiarize yourself with the regulations for recording lectures at UiO. Remember that the admission must still be published in the course timetable (see the section "Publication of admission" below).

Publishing a recording

According to the MN guidelines you must publish lecture recordings in the timetable on the course semester page. Recordings should not be placed in Canvas.

Read UiO's guidelines for publishing data with regard to copyright and different classification of data (green, yellow, red and black data)
