We’ve used Mediasite to deliver dissertations live for faculty members that were traveling, to create training and orientation videos for new staff and faculty, to deliver a few classes across the globe to our partner college in New Delhi, India, and much more.

We chose Mediasite after careful consideration of its current features, the direction of its future development and, in particular, with respect to the ease of scheduling and handling of recordings. The system's cross-platform compatibility, by virtue of moving entirely to Microsoft's new Silverlight technology, also played a significant role in the decision.

Mediasite has made it possible for anyone wanting to get into the sports broadcasting field to webcast in front of a live audience and get more comfortable speaking.

What's valuable to me is the time-saving aspect of the Mediasite presentations. Lectures may be slowed down, sped up or paused in order for the student to catch up on the material which is really useful to me. I can also skip to the power point slide that I am looking for and the video will automatically sync to the location.

With more faculty requesting control over their own content, and with the University looking at creative ways to allow students to add presentations into our Angel LMS though Mediasite that are true works of academic content, it is important for us to have workflows identified that not only allow us to review, edit and approve presentations, but also maintain multiple revisions over time.

Mediasite allows surgical trainees, medical students and allied health professionals access to the operating room which they might not otherwise get due to constraints on time and space. Mediasite allows a large number of viewers to watch the surgery simultaneously and also to post a comment online, which are relayed to the operating surgeon by two-way audio via a moderator.
The Future of Video in Education: A Vision of Your Campus in 2013 and Beyond

Do you believe the knowledge shared in a classroom is important? Your students do. Meteoric student demand has prompted universities large and small to evaluate how best to harness the power of video in support of their academic missions. Your words, your knowledge - they are the essence of what makes a university. But what’s the best way to capture that knowledge before it evaporates into thin air? Campuses that are wired for video are the digital sources of the future and will be the catalysts for making knowledge transfer prolific.

The biggest challenge from the instructor view was feeling that people were judging my teaching. But as soon as students watched and gave feedback I realized this isn't about judging. Mediasite captures the classroom experience - they hear me, they hear their peers, and they learn from that.

Supporting the structure of the class with Mediasite really levels the playing field for the distance students, who are every bit as good-and in many cases better-than campus students. Learning via Mediasite, they do well on exams, show tremendous insight on projects and ask provoking questions.

I was concerned it may encourage absenteeism because a lot of students commute a long time to get here. But the attendance has been 100 percent, and they are all viewing the lecture as well. I think that is quite remarkable. It tells me the students are interested in going back for learning purposes.
