1. Select Notes, if you included notes that you want to read as you record.
2. Turn the camera on, if you want your students to see you as you talk through the lesson.
3. When you are ready, select the red record button. Wait for the 3, 2, 1 countdown and then begin talking. Advance to the next slide when you are ready and continue your recording. (If you prefer, you can stop your recording on each slide.)
