It is recommended that each video not exceed 6-9 minutes in length. When possible, chunk material into smaller topics that students can easily watch on the go or in short segments. See the articles below for some recommendations on video lengths.
SPC now has PANOPTO Video Hosting and Creation Platform. Please consider hosting your Academic Content on PANOPTO instead of a YouTube channel for more security. Reach out to mycourses4faculty@spcollege.edu for information on accessing your Panopto Account.
After uploading your videos, please make sure that they are captioned so that they are accessible to all. YouTube does auto-caption but often requires edits to be made by the user. Captioning YouTube Videos- Make your Videos Accessible to ALL
