There’s nothing inherently wrong with the one-camera shoot for a streaming video webcast. But sometimes the high-profile nature of your speakers, or your viewers, is going to demand a bit more production polish and visual variety to keep them engaged.
While most of us don’t have a full production crew on call, ready to come to our rescue with multiple camera people, a producer, director, switcher, lighting and more…Russell Investment Group has figured out how to run it all with just one person.
That’s right. One person, and some pretty nifty gear.
If you haven’t heard the hype about MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses), you soon will.
These free classes are only offered online and they’re wide open to anyone who wants to sign up. Some of the biggest brands in academia have announced impressive MOOC plans, and a few superstar instructors have jumped in with both feet. Skeptics call MOOCs outliers, but most people agree that whatever happens, MOOCs will make an impact on the way we teach both students and adult learners in the future.
So what does this trend mean for you, your faculty and your campus?
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.
