Hi folks,
There's a discussion on Times Higher Education's Twitter feed about lecture capture,
and that in one institution it has been found to double student absence - alongside
the finding that those who only watch the lecture, don't actually attend, get lower
grades.
What are TeachLingers experiences here? My university doesn't currently use lecture
capture as a default, though I think the technology is mostly in place.
There's also a little gem of advice that came up in the Twitter conversation, and
that's to make the video only available to students who actually attended in person,
using the 'adaptive release' feature in Blackboard (presumably similar features exist
in other VLEs). There were no details of precisely how that works in practice, how
you feed the attendance data into the adaptive release, but it seems like a potential
solution to the above issue.
Captively yours,
Dave
