In an era of budget reductions and cost-cutting, cost and efficiency are primary considerations for institutions of higher learning. And yet, the California State University, Fullerton School of Nursing has been able to continue to provide high quality support services to students while reducing the time required for these functions.
No one has been thinking strategically about knowledge capture in a classroom as long as John DeAngelo. From flipped classes to sage on the stage, more online instruction is created by faculty in his classrooms than anywhere else.
He’s put almost every lecture capture brand to the test as one of the first college-level CIOs in higher education, personally supervising the acquisition, installation and replacement of some of the largest capture projects in the country.
So if you’ve been thinking that all lecture capture is created equal, he’ll tell you, “Think again.”
In 2009, the University of Michigan Ross School of Business opened the doors to a new era of learning designed to enhance the digital culture that defines student life. Every room in the state-of-the-art 270,000 square foot building – from the large auditoriums to the intimate collaborative spaces – was equipped to support the most seamless use of integrated technologies while becoming a model of student learning efficiencies.
How did a university with minimal budget, one full time staffer and three distributed campuses, including a distance learning programme with 16,000 enrolled students, get to 2500 online presentations with 131,085 views?
Ask a Massey University professor, instructional designer and academic technologist and they will all tell you the same thing: vision, cooperation and Mediasite lecture capture technology.
When you hear “hybrid event” you might think the key to success is what happens online – the speakers, streaming video, social media and the like.
But the world’s best event producers know different. The most successful hybrid events begin months before registration opens, and most of the magic happens on site, behind the black curtain.

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.
What would motivate a small non-profit to buy an enterprise grade webcasting platform? Could they ever expect to see a return on that kind of investment? And why bother with professional-grade, purpose-built hardware, when software is cheaper and easier, right?
Wrong, at least according to the Energy Center of Wisconsin.
They needed to get their energy efficiency message out to a larger audience - without a big budget and without putting their viewers to sleep with a lot of technical data.
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?
Frost & Sullivan summarizes the research that led to selecting Sonic Foundry for their 2010 Global Market Share Leadership of the Year Award for Lecture Capture Solutions.
