Getting Creative with Lecture Capture

It might be time to find a new name for lecture capture. As the availability of user-friendly video recording and sharing software has combined with the innovative spirit of faculty and students, we’ve quickly evolved beyond the point of using products like Tegrity to simply record standard lectures and upload them for student viewing.

In a recent article, Campus Technology highlighted six interesting ways faculty are using lecture capture to add value to their courses.

We know that many faculty at Simmons are already using Tegrity, GoToMeeting, Google Apps, and other products to record and share various aspects of their courses, and this article provides some fresh ideas for extending the interactivity, sharability, cross-campus collaboration, and general usefulness of lecture capture.

If you’re just getting started with creating video content for your courses, Simmons Technology has provided a list of supported tools and their potential uses here.
