Fully Automated, “Taskless,” Lecture Capture and Web Publishing System

1. Fully Automated, “Taskless,” Lecture Capture and Web Publishing System With little or no impact on faculty time

2. Automated lecture capture of live classes • Creates a rich media and podcast-ready version of every lecture captured • Records audio and computer and sometimes video of lectures • Audio – classroom installed microphone • VGA -anything going to the projector • Video – optional if a camera is installed Automatically post lectures to student Bb web sites

3. Other Institutions with History of Lecture Capture Impementation

4. Other institutions report that lecture capture: • increased grades, particularly those of underperforming students • Decreased withdrawals, Ds and Fs With little or no impact on faculty time

5. 95% of surveyed Case Western Reserve students recommend using lecture capture What they are saying about Lecture Capture 94% 10% of Temple University students prefer lecture captured enabled classes Reduction in D’s, F’s and W’s among students at UMass Lowell “The feedback has been fantastic. We are podcasting a diverse set of courses but it seems to be especially helpful to students taking larger classes. Echo360 offers students additional access to course information that reinforces their classroom experience.” John Arpino, GW University “We type in notes, but even then you still can’t type as fast as the professor can talk, so you miss some things. And if you get notes from someone else, they’re just not as good as watching the professor.” Russell Harper, Law Student, UA-LR

6. Another Example:Coppin State University (CSU) • Student grades in courses enhanced by lecture capture (both f2f and fully online formats) were positively correlated with students viewing time of the captured lectures. • Student withdrawal rates decreased when course delivery formats incorporated lecture capture.” - Chris Britton-Powell, Ph.D. Psychology Assessment, Coppin State University

7. Typical Screen Shot wi Optional Video (video is not usually deployed) and Captions Optional Video in selected classrooms Closed Captions are possible Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country. Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.

8. Typical Screen shot- slide thumbnails, full slide and synchronized audio (no video) • Full slide Slide thumbnails for navigation Synchronizes wi audio

9. Accessibility & Section 508 Compliance • Supports closed captioning • Volume control • Screen-reader support • VPAT available

11. Lecture capture is a good match for: Lecture-style courses Courses that require a lot of review Courses that require memorization Courses where basic comprehension is an issue Courses where students are at risk 101 type foundation courses Large enrollment courses

12. How students use it • Post-class review • To review a confusing point • To take notes • To clarify comprehension of the language • While doing home work • To answer specific questions • Test / quiz preparation • After missing a class

22. UMASS Lecture Capture Findings Calculus courses had a success rate (a grade of C or better) 11 percent higher than their peers, and received 10 percent fewer Ds, Fs, or withdrawals. "Calculus 1 students overwhelmingly credited the ability to review lectures as playing a role in improving their understanding of calculus concepts," "The data indicates that EchoSystem lectures have played a part in better preparing students for Calculus 2, a prerequisite for succeeding in advanced engineering and other hard science majors." John Warner, director UMASS Lowell Center for Green Chemistry. "They use Echo360 to increase their understanding of the concepts and once they do, they achieve better grades and begin to believe in themselves. I can literally see it in their eyes; it lights a passion in them for the subject matter."

23. CSU East Bay uniquely positioned to implement lecture capture due to: • Enterprise deployment of the Bb LMS • Campus-wide Smart Classroom installations
