Capture Space

Hello this is a quick tutorial I am
Katie Walker I'm going to show you how

to use capturespace to create a video
presentation or screencast on the first

step is to install the capture space
software this is something you only have

to do once but you start off by going to
the media space you a Alaska dot edu

website which you can see here and you
click guest and then you log in and you

log in just like you log into blackboard
and you'll see your name up here in

order to find capturespace click on add
new if you do not see capturespace here

call the call center at seven eight six
four six four six when you click on that

you'll see the options to download
either for Windows or for Mac and then

of course after you've downloaded it you
need to click on the downloaded file and

install it once you do that you will see
the capture space can be opened directly

from your computer menu because it's
installed on your computer and you no

longer have to go to this website so you
can see that there's a lot of different

options for use and capture space the
one I'm going to demonstrate today is

the presentations and lectures so what
you do is you click on presentations and

lectures and it shows up with whatever
the last thing I did was so the the

options on the left are very important
you first have to choose the correct

webcam you may have more than one and
secondly you have to choose whether you

want a screen capture or a presentation
one or the other so I'm doing a

presentation so I'm going to browse and
I'm going to pick one of my

presentations just randomly picking one
as an example here and then the last

thing is to check which microphone I'm
using and make sure it's maybe the best

quality microphone so after I've chosen
my camera chosen presentation and put my

PowerPoint presentation here and chosen
my sound then I'm ready to record

so once you record it's going to show
you your slides and give you the

opportunity to click or right click to
change slides and narrate through your

presentation
you can pause it at any time and when

you're finished you'll hit done in this
case I'm going to pause this screencast

for a moment so that I can do it and
show you the second step so once you've

recorded your presentation you will
click done and then it'll bring up this

preview and you can take a look at it
and see how it looks when you're happy

with it you'll hit done again then it'll
ask you to fill out the title and the

description and tags and then you want
to upload it and when you upload it it

is going to go into my media now it'll
take longer if it's a longer video I

made a really really short video so it's
very quick and so it gives me a URL but

also when I go to blackboard and I click
on my media I will find the video that I

just recorded in my media and notice
it's showing just a temporary image

because I've just done it a moment ago
this was a practice one that I did

earlier I'm going to go ahead and delete
that one so this isn't like my own

private YouTube channel so nobody else
can see this this yet but this is where

all videos I make with coucher are saved
Plus this is where I can just simply

upload plain old videos that I have from
from a previous streaming server or from

somewhere else so this is not a
necessary step I just wanted to show you

where it is whenever you want to share
it with other people you have to put it

into blackboard and there's a number of
ways you can do that but one way is on a

blog or a discussion board or in an
assignment you will find a mashups

button so it doesn't matter which one of
the blackboard tools are in when you see

mashups you simply choose Kaltura and
then you will again get that list of

everything that's in your my media and
here's the one I've just done and I'll

select that
and it'll just insert it with a

thumbnail and I've added it below what I
did previously it'll put it right in

there and that's how you can add it to
blackboard so hopefully this will give

you a good idea of how to use capture
space to create a presentation and add

it to blackboard
