How do I record a webcam video, screen capture, or audio recording as a feedback comment in SpeedGrader?

If you access Canvas using Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge as your web browser, you can record a webcam video, audio, or screen capture as a comment on student submissions in SpeedGrader.

If you record audible speech, recordings include captions automatically.

Note: Studio Capture is optimized for Full-HD recordings, with a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. It performs best when your screen matches or is below this resolution. If your screen has a higher resolution, you may experience performance issues during recording or a decrease in video quality.
