lecture capture the debate

Is lecture capture the future for our teaching

?

What is lecture capture?

It is simply the process of recording a lecture or workshop and making it available at a

later stage to your students. This could be a video or audio recording.

Why do we seem to be bothered about it now?

Technology has progressed to a level that now makes it possible for us all to adopt it in

our everyday teaching.

It has caused concern in the past that lecture capture will replace conventional teaching.

However, this not the intended purpose of my research but rather to explore the possibility of

using it as a supplementary teaching resource to enhance the learning of our students.

So the big question is: why would we want to have

lessons recorded? Or should the question be

why wouldn't we?

Against

Is a new model really needed?

Surely attendance will suffer?

Would staffing levels change?

Technology can be unreliable and difficult to use

For

Students could revisit a class

Students can learn in the best way that suits them

Learning would be enhanced

Great resource for reflecting on your own teaching

Lecture capture should be made available to our students as a supplementary teaching

resource.
