According to a recent survey of UK HEI’s, lecture capture has now been adopted in over 80% of institutions (UCISA 2016 – https://www.ucisa.ac.uk/tel). Much of the demand is driven by students, and understandably so, as it is a valuable support for note-taking, revision and learners with special educational needs, though coverage across subject disciplines remains fragmented. Capture technologies have been continuously evolving over the past 15 years to improve the quality of audio-visual capture, the instructor in-class experience, and how students can interact with recordings, but how can these support a new demand for flexible access and improved student engagement?

This TweetChat will explore how the next generation of capture technologies, featuring polling, social interactions, and analytics, can be best adopted for active learning in lectures, flipped learning, blended in-class learning, and distance learning. Fans of lecture capture, skeptics and agnostics alike are invited to share their thoughts!

Stephen Powell (Manchester Metropolitan University) and John Couperthwaite (Solutions Engineer, Echo360 EMEA) will lead this #LTHEChat session.​
