THE ULTIMATE LECTURE CAPTURE GUIDE
Professors have a lot of content to get across in the short time they have with the students, so it can be difficult to have to slow momentum to write out information on the board or spend time on a one-sided lecture instead of diving deep into discussion and team work. (“This could have been an email,” has evolved to, “This could have been a video”). For students who struggle to keep up by scribbling notes so intensely that they miss key information, being able to reference lecture captured classes when studying for finals is a game changer. More than that, students have grown accustomed to attending classes remotely and even expect that offering to continue.

Having a reliable lecture capture solution available for any classroom on today’s campus is a great way to maintain flexibility in changing environments.
