What is a Reflection?
A Reflection on the IRIS Connect platform is made up of a video, or videos, and any supporting resources that are attached to it.
The review page for a Reflection allows you to:
- Add time-stamped comments for contextualised notes and feedback
- Add supporting documents as attached files
- Link insights for wider analysis
- Clip segments of the video to save as separate clips (if you are the owner)
- Share reflections (if you are the owner)
- Upload additional videos or create a screen capture (if you are the owner)
This guide focuses on accessing and playing a video within a Reflection.
