Instructors have two folder access options when creating an assignment with Panopto. The first is to have the students use an assignment folder when submitting. The second is to have the students use their own personal folder. Using the assignment folder gives instructors more control over the student's submissions. Using the personal folder allows students to share their videos with their classmates in addition to the instructor. Following are some help articles that pertain to each type.
