ReVIEWLecture Capture

Guidance for students

Bookmarks and Notes

Staff and students have the option to create bookmarks and notes with the ReVIEW lecture capture system.

If you have bookmarked a section of a recording, upon logging in, you will see a tab on the left side for marked content. You can bookmark specific times in a recording that you want to return to.

ReVIEW also enables you to make notes as you are watching the recording so they are linked to the relevant section of the recording and your notes are all in one place. You can click on the note to return to that part of the recording. You can take notes while viewing a session to refresh your memory later. Additionally, any note you take will become searchable.

The bookmark function is private to each individual and cannot be shared. Notes are by default private but can be shared.
  

How to add Bookmarks

Number 1  Log into Learn and select the session you wish to add bookmarks to from the ReVIEW block. This will take you to the normal viewing layout. Select the ‘Bookmarks’ tab on the left-hand side of the screen:
