Using the iPad screen recorder and uploading the video to Canvas.

 

This post will show you how to use the iPad screen recorder and upload it to an assignment in Canvas.

The first step is making sure the screen recorder is available in the Control Center.

Start by opening the Settings on your iPad.

1. Click Control Center on the left.
2. If you see Screen Recording listed in the More Controls section, click the small plus symbol.


Make sure you can see Screen Recording listed in the Included Controls section.

To open the screen recorder, drag your finger from the upper right corner in a downward angle like the arrow.

Click the Screen Recording button.

Tripple check, you will need to make sure you have clicked the microphone on. I have created a bunch of recordings and half the time I forget to turn the mic on.

1. I can tell my mic is ready because it is red and says ON.
2. Click Start Recording when ready.

I can tell it is recording when I see Screen Recoding turn red at the top and it will say Stop Recording at the bottom.
I now click into the screen and pull up my presentation.

I pull down the Control Center and click the recording button to stop.

You will see a notification pop up stating that the recording has been put into Photos. I click the notification to pull up the recording.

To share the video to Canvas, click the sharrow. (the share arrow)

Click the Canvas icon.

1. Fill in and select.
2. Click Submit.

I would always recommend double-checking to make sure it has submitted. If you have any wifi issues it might not actually submit.
1. I can tell something uploaded, it gives me the message that it was uploaded successfully.
2. I can also click this green button to resubmit if needed.

You can also use the screen recorder, google slides, and camera to present as shown in this video.
