Lecture Capture

Comprehensive study finds that students overwhelmingly prefer having their lectures available online, either for remote access or for later viewing.

Most lecture capture systems are too tech-heavy, too expensive, require too much training, and are too difficult to adopt across a campus. Until now. TechSmith’s newest beta software, Camtasia Relay, changes everything. Join Michigan State University and see how they’re better connecting with students, anytime, anywhere.

Course lecture capture provides many positive benefits to enhance student learning by providing on-demand access to recorded class lectures. We will share the results of our pilot including implementation challenges, student and faculty feedback, and assessment data.

Converting an audiotape lecture-capture system to a digital one required close attention to staff, instructor, and student needs

This section of the ELI Guide to Podcasting was written by Carie Windham, Former Undergraduate, North Carolina State University, and Graduate Student, University of Ulster, Northern Ireland. It is also published in EDUCAUSE Review, Vol. 42, No. 3 (May/June 2007).

After becoming a podcasting convert, the author talked with other students at colleges and universities across North America about their iPod and MP3 use, their familiarity with podcasting, and how they see podcasting as part of the classroom.

Computer competence influenced the performance differences between on-campus and distance students taking a lab-based course

Focusing on "pioneering," the EDUCAUSE Evolving Technologies Committee looked at six technologies and trends—Web 2.0 applications, cell phones, vortals, podcasting, open-source learning management systems, and wireless—and considered how higher education institutions can prepare not only for this rich content but also for that yet to come.

Formative evaluation strategies helped identify a solution to a learning dilemma.

Podcasting is taking its place among the dizzying variety of grassroots media now available to everyone. Those in higher education need to understand the potential uses and value of rich media authoring, bringing podcasting into courses so that students can lift their learning to a whole new level.
