The ability to quickly record audio/video files gives users the opportunity to experiment with multimedia submissions, like video blogs or podcasts. If enabled by the school, users can create audio/video files when submitting Portfolio activities by selecting the Audio or Video icons.
After selecting Audio or Video, users can:
- Record up to three minutes of audio or video by selecting the Record radio button and selecting Record (users may be prompted to permit the program to use the computer's camera and microphone).
- Select the Upload radio button and select Choose File to upload a file.
Notes:
