You will be able to record your lectures by running a Zoom session on the classroom computer (or your laptop), integrated with a camera in the room and a wireless microphone. See Zoom Streaming instructions here.

This live-streaming an in-person, including with student participation guide shares a couple of tech tools and strategies you can use to facilitate lecture.

Register here to have your lectures recorded for the entire quarter. Requests may exceed capacity. If you wish to record only when students are absent, and your room also has Zoom Streaming, see above. If your room does not have Zoom Streaming, please contact bruincast@ucla.edu as soon as the need arises.

Register here to set up audio recordings. If audio alone isn’t sufficient and you lecture using slides, one simple solution is to share the audio file and the slides with the students. For other scenarios, see No built-in recording capability below.

A thorough discussion of options can be found in this DIY Guide for Recording In-Person Lectures. This video gives a brief overview of some options. Local support staff in many divisions and schools can also assist.

• If you lecture using slides, one simple solution is to project the slides from within a Zoom session and record the session. Or you can forgo recording the slides while you’re lecturing and simply make that file available to students along with recorded audio.
• If you usually write on the board, consider instead writing on a tablet and capturing that input in your Zoom session.
• There are a variety of ways to record your speech to your laptop or other device. If you are not using a mic, you will need to be near your device and facing it. This constraint can be mitigated by wearing Bluetooth earbuds or another type of wireless mic that is connected to your device. See further instructions for audio recording in the DIY Guide for Recording In-Person Lectures.
