Description
Lectures are now routinely recorded in many institutions, but the approach remains controversial and is often branded as ‘bad’ educational technology. The argument of this session, developed from projects and experience in a range of universities that lecture capture is a genuinely transformative technology in higher education, benefitting our students, our staff and our institutions. The session will draw together user experiences from Imperial, UCL and the ViTAL (video in teaching and learning) community. We will also explore evidence from the literature and the recently-finished REC:all project which UCL led. REC:all tried to identify some concrete educational benefits, starting with ‘classical’ lecture capture – the recording of live teaching events. We used a simple framework to describe educational value – the 3 I’s, namely image, interactivity and integration. We believe lecture capture is a genuine game changer and use that awful cliché deliberately as lecture capture is not often seen in that transformative light.
The extended presentation aims to develop our collective view, based on the participants’ contribution and feedback on the applicability and potential of these approaches.
