Lecture capture is an all encompassing term describing any technology that allows lecturers or tutors to record their lectures and make them available digitally (Educause, 2008).
Using visual information (lecture capture) as an additional channel can aid the retention of verbal information (Mayer & Anderson, 1991)
Learning requires visual as well as auditory stimulus, particularly when technology is being used, in order to promote cognitive processing. Whatley & Ahmad (2007)
Imagine what a lecture may be like for an average university student. New concepts may be difficult, taking notes may get in the way of listening fully, attention wanes toward the end, a lecture missed due to illness may put someone behind for weeks. The lecture may be conducted in an unfamiliar language or a learning disability may make lectures or concepts particularly difficult. Imagine if all those lectures were recorded and put online after the fact - the benefits to having that lecture available as a resource become clear.
Use of lecture capture does not stop at archives of lectures or informational recordings- a creative and reflective lecturer can use the technology in various ways to change their teaching.
Benefits • Additional level of support for students of all types (lecture capture as a study tool) • Ability to capture visitors and special lectures • Pool of resources which are editable, sharable, reusable, and indefinitely accessible • Opportunity to expand to blended/online module • Offers a way in online modules to create more personalized material with a lecturer's voice or image • 'Desktop' recordings offer a simple way to give feedback or provide bespoke resources as need arises • Chance to reflect, self-evaluate, or change teaching
Lecture Capture Pilot @UEL • Panopto (Newcastle; Leeds Met; Imperial College; Southampton; Bath; Birmingham) • Lecture capture • Live broadcast of lectures • Pre-recording lectures, i.e. 'flipped classroom' method • Personalised feedback to students on assessments, exams, assignments • Record guest speakers and presenters • Continuous improvement/ Peer review
Scope • Pilot period: 2014/2015 Academic Year • 15 teaching rooms (large and small) to be fitted with static cameras and microphones • Personal capture • Mobile kits • Knowledge Dock meeting rooms
FAQs 1 • Will attendance in recorded lectures be affected? Evidence from other HEIs suggests that attendance is not affected by lecture capture. • Do I make all lecture material available? You should make sure that the recording is a close as possible to the live lecture. You may wish to trim off the start and end of the recording, but where possible you should avoid changing the main body of the recording. There may be occasions when you need to remove sections, for example if you play a video that can be shown live but may not be recorded.
FAQs 2 • Will all lectures be recorded? At the moment we are running a pilot of lecture capture so that we can evaluate the needs of the University so not all lectures will be recorded. • Do I still need to attend recorded lectures? Yes, you will still be expected to attend lectures as usual. The recordings are an extra resource that you may find useful for revision and reviewing complex areas. • How do students access the material? Students will be able to watch the recorded lectures from Moodle.
