My Mediasite Student Pilot Launching Fall 2015!(Archive)

July 27, 2015 Laura B Stephenson

After wide adoption of My Mediasite from faculty and staff and continued requests for student use of the desktop recording software, we are rolling out a pilot for student use beginning in the Fall semester of 2015.

My Mediasite includes two features in our suite of media production and online instruction applications: desktop recording and personal media management. Using these tools, My Mediasite lets you:

record presentations or screencasts from a personal computer, capturing video, audio and/or computer images
upload previously recorded video to be stored and managed in one location
edit video through a Web-based video editor

After creating or uploading video into My Mediasite, you can share links directly on your own website or through email.

Sign up now!

Please note that participation is limited to 100 students on a first-come, first-served basis, with instructor permission. If you are an instructor and would like to use this technology as part of your course, please send an email to mediasite-help@ncsu.edu with the name of the course and section number and we will provide your class roll with access to the software and requirements to use the service.

This pilot will help us determine the feasibility of making this service available to all students at a later date.
