    Mediasite is going mobile - leading the way with live streaming to iPads, iPhones, iPods and more. From course lectures and online training to executive communications and special events, Mediasite 6 empowers learners everywhere with live and on-demand rich media streamed to their favorite devices. But mobile support is just the beginning. Known for its rock-solid lecture capture and enterprise webcasting, Mediasite by Sonic Foundry continues to push the boundaries for recording, streaming, archiving, managing and tracking rich media knowledge and special events.
  • 101 Academic Perspectives on What Works in Lecture Capture
    Now that over 1000 campuses have deployed the Mediasite lecture capture platform, we asked faculty, staff and students from across the globe to share their reactions and results. Has teaching, learning and outreach been impacted in positive ways by the use of Mediasite in – and outside of – their classrooms?
  • We uncovered immediately upon our purchase of Mediasite that having the right tools in place allowed faculty to be more effective and enhance student learning experiences, while at the same time very little was added to faculty preparation time.

  • With Mediasite, students have more opportunity to learn and a greater level of performance because of it.

  • Before Mediasite we had pretty dull presentations -- set up a video camera in the back of the room and you get bad video of the presenter and you don't capture any of the presenter's auxiliary materials. After Mediasite, we are able to present presentations to students, alumni, staff and faculty on-demand that are media rich. They provide a complete experience for a viewer who is looking at presentations after the fact. They see not only the video and audio of the speaker but they also get the auxiliary materials, which is really crucial for us. 

  • Mediasite by Sonic Foundry is first to mind when we hear streaming media. We capture live from web cams to international videoconferences all the way to broadcast quality video with just one operator, a Mediasite Recorder and no post-production. All things being equal, you plug it in and you know Mediasite is going to work.

  • The whole reason you capture lectures, events and other presentations is to share content, so having webcasting and knowledge management together in a simple, secure, easy to use platform is critical. It narrows the field of solutions you evaluate, and when you add all the moving parts together, Mediasite is the most cost-effective platform available.

  • Over the last five years we have seen an enormous growth in the adoption of online learning and distance learning, much of which can be attributed to the ease of use of Mediasite. But to me Mediasite is more than a technology, it is a relationship, a partnership with Sonic Foundry to optimize this platform that creates exposure for ASU with students all across the world.

  • Mediasite extends the classroom to anywhere the Internet is available, and through it, we not only help expand access to our students and faculty, but also create important connections within our community, nationally and worldwide. It helps us to remember that the Internet is almost always on, and our challenge is to continue to effectively use it to enhance teaching and student learning.

  • Packed with stats, this ebook summarizes over five years of studies from schools across the U.S. These colleges and universities conducted their own independent research projects and assessments to evaluate the impact of lecture capture with Mediasite on retention, recruitment & student satisfaction.
