D2L video Note

Video Note’s primary purpose is to help instructors establish a strong presence in their courses and give students an opportunity to respond to discussions, assignments or quiz questions in a different way. Video Notes are intended to be brief. It's important to remember that Video Notes should not be utilized for recording full lectures; instead, Microsoft Teams is recommended. Please remember it's not possible to capture screen activity; only webcam recordings are supported. Video Notes can be reused, so it is recommended to title the recordings.
