Unleash Your Organization in the Age of Video

We live in an era where video is being live-streamed, recorded and is rapidly becoming our primary source for learning something new. Leading corporations and education institutions have amazing opportunities to harness the power of video to advance their message, improve collaboration, expand business opportunities and educate the masses.
Controlling Content Chaos: How Sandia National Laboratories Streamlined its Video Content Management Strategy with Mediasite

Sandia National Laboratories employs nearly 9,000 scientists, engineers, biologists and support staff, who work on projects related to the nation’s most challenging security issues. Over the years, they’ve amassed thousands of hours of video-based technical documentation, training and research. The content – much of which was created on outdated devices and exists in all sorts of formats – needs to be preserved for up to 75 years and meet the National Archives and Records Administration standards.
Mediasiting Your MOOC: How UW La Crosse Transformed Online Learning Modules into a Massive Open Online Course

The seed for a math MOOC at UW La Crosse was planted in 2007 long before the term became mainstream, when Professor Robert Hoar and his colleagues created a large collection of online learning modules and webcasts to help students enhance their math skills. They gathered data, tracked viewing habits and assessed student performance. What they found was that students showed marked improvement in their math skills over time.

Mediasite technology has greatly improved the pedagogy of online, hybrid, and even face-to-face classes. High-quality, user-friendly lecture capture means that students can tune in live or later to the actual teaching presence of our best professors. Face-to-face students can ‘attend’ when they’re sick without sharing the latest bug with the whole class, and everyone can review lectures and explanations before a test.
From Flipped Classroom to Dual Enrollment: How ENMU Achieved Campus-Wide Capture in 12 Months

While Eastern New Mexico University (ENMU) is the third largest school in the state, it covers more ground than any other university. The entire eastern part of the state, to be exact. In the dean’s quest to make education accessible to the region’s traditional, non-traditional and dual-enrollment students (high school students taking college courses), she had to think outside the traditional classroom experience.
Embracing the Opportunities of BYOD in Higher Education Classroom AV Design

Just when you’ve got your AV plan nailed down for smart classrooms and facilities, there’s a new trend taking hold to supplement the learning that goes on in there – a dramatic shift toward BYOD and consumerization. While students and faculty have been using personal devices on campus since the first calculator, they’ve never been as functional, collaborative, personal or ubiquitous as they are now. And students have never been more tech-savvy.

If you're an instructor wouldn't you rather spend classroom time doing things that are engaging -- discussions, projects -- and not just providing routine content that can be done through something like Mediasite?
Campus IT Priorities: A Conversation with Kenneth C. Green of The Campus Computing Project

Campus IT priorities are changing — or are they? Clearly campus IT leaders confront significant budget challenges and as well as the growing demand for additional IT resources and services: going mobile, maintaining IT security, supporting online instruction, migrating to cloud computing, enabling lecture capture, and also updating the institutional IT infrastructure. Yet new data from the fall 2012 Campus Computing Survey reveal that core issues — the instruction integration of information technology, IT user support, and hiring/retaining qualified IT personne
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.

We created a video library of professional development programs that we sell subscriptions to for our members. Mediasite is by far the best delivery system that we found to meet the needs of our members, and we are thankful that we started this program back in 2008 and look for other ways to continue growing in the future.
