Presentation Format and Length

You may use Microsoft PowerPoint or other suitable presentation software to create your slides. Use Kaltura to create and record your audio/visual presentation.

Check that your Kaltura and PowerPoint software are working properly.

Important: Record your narrated presentation in Kaltura. Do not do a PowerPoint using the PPT Voice-Over” option, but instead use Kaltura to record yourself giving a presentation. Using a voice-over” option on PowerPoint will make your file too large to upload. Refer to the Campus resource for more information about this course room tool.
