17. Pre-Recording Class Lectures
The steps below are a work around. The ideal method to pre-record your lecture would be to create a private channel in the Teams classroom, in that channel select ‘Meet now’, record your lecture and then move the video file to the Class Materials folder so students can have view access. However, we found a bug with this method. The bug has been reported to Microsoft and a fix is pending.
This document provides detailed directions on how to pre-record.
