It’s here! Humber’s new academic video streaming platform, Panopto, is now live and available to all faculty and staff.
Designed to help you record, edit, search, and stream curriculum videos, Panopto will help you better engage with your learners, and easily share content with your colleagues.
Some of the world’s top academic institutions are already using Panopto, and we can’t wait for you to discover the many ways that it can help you innovate in teaching and learning.
Top five things to discover on Panopto, once you login using your Humber credentials:
- Click the “Create” button to find out how easy it is to create and upload a quick, accessible video using your desktop or mobile device.
- Use the “Browse” functionality to discover videos that have already been made available for you to use from our early users.
- Find out just how powerful Panopto’s “Smart Search” really is (search names, text on PowerPoints, spoken word, and more…)
- Activate one of the many Blackboard Integrations within your course (mashups, portals, and more!)
- Create your very first “Video Quiz” and watch the results flow into Blackboard’s Grade Centre.

Note for University of Guelph-Humber:
The University of Guelph-Humber is developing a separate environment for Panopto which integrates with Desire2Learn. Panopto will be available for the UofGH community in the future. See Who Can Use Panopto? for more information.
Note for Ensemble Video Users:
If you already had videos on Ensemble Video (Humber’s video streaming pilot), you will find that they have been seamlessly migrated into Panopto. A message with further details has already gone out to Ensemble Users.
Panopto is proudly brought to you by the Centre for Teaching & Learning and Humber Libraries.
