Start Recording (IMPORTANT)

Its important to record your session, so please do not skip this step.

In case record button does not appear at the bottom right you need to click on the Record button as shown in the image below. By clicking it the recording will start immediately.

While you record you have the option to see the duration of the recording, pause it in case of a break and stop it after you finished your lecture.
