Norsk versjon: Undervise i rom tilrettelagt for nettbasert undervisning via USB
In these rooms, you can connect your own laptop to the room's built-in audio and camera systems. This gives you access to the room’s microphones and camera in applications like Zoom, Panopto and Teams, allowing you to record, live stream or participate in video meetings. This ensures good sound quality both digitally as well as physically in the room.
How to proceed
The USB cable is found on the podium:
Plug the cable into your computer:
When you start a program such as Zoom, Panopto, or Teams, you will see that the room’s microphone and camera are available as devices where you select your audio and video source.
Possibilities in the room
Recording
If the room is equipped with Panopto, it is possible to record using external cameras. This solution gives the best results if you want to record an entire lecture. The recordings can be part of a flipped teaching approach.

If you're recording your lecture, you're obligated to comply with requirements and regulations related to the handling of personal data.
On-Campus Teaching
Rooms with Panopto can also be used as regular classrooms – you don't need to use Panopto for the room to function. If all students can be present on campus, you can teach as you would in a regular classroom.
Live Teaching
You can live stream your lecture to your students. In this case, it's best if all students follow the session online while you lecture alone in the Panopto room. This will be similar to an online session where you're in the classroom while the students are at home. This ensures a consistent experience for all students.

Limitations in the room
Hybrid teaching
The hybrid version of online teaching – where some students are in the classroom while others follow online – does not work well in rooms with Panopto because of a 30-second delay in the stream. This makes it practically impossible for remote students to participate in the same way and with the same quality as those physically present. (However, it is possible to set up a third party chat solution where you can interact with the remote students.)
The technology is primarily created for recording, but it also gives the flexibility for hybrid teaching or external guest lecturers. Hybrid teaching involves some challenges, so we recommend that you read through this information on hybrid teaching before you get started.
Hybrid teaching works well in Zoom Rooms.
