Screen recording in PowerPoint

The ability to capture a video of what is on your screen is a super tool that has great applications for both teachers and students.




In the "Recording" tab choose "Screen Recording"



You get the options to choose an area of the screen, turn audio on/off, see the cursor or not.

During the recording you can record anything on your screen, pause any time then when you hit "Stop" the video is placed on the slide in PowerPoint.

Exporting the video you have two options:
  1. Export as an mp4 file
  2. Export to Stream - which puts the video online for sharing and saves space




Applications for this are endless - students demonstrating their projects and solutions, teachers creating how-to videos that can guide students - one video that can be viewed by any number of students at any time.
