Lecture Capture Software
Lecture capture, in its simplest form, captures the content of a lecture by recording and
storing it in a format that any user can access for later review
-
Addlogix's InternetVue PC2TV software allows
the instructor to wirelessly project any student's work onto a screen at the front of the
classroom, at the same time as the Mediasite lecture capture system records the content for later
review.
- Apreso Classroom, a content capture system from Anystream (now
Echo360), allows faculty who were using
intelligent classrooms to record classes visually, and post the captures on the internet as well as
on
Blackboard
- With DyKnow Vision, instructors can privately view student submissions (such as the answers to
a quiz) during class, project them to the front of the room for the entire class to see, or add
them to the collaborative notebook.

DyKnow Software Suite helps a student develop
a personalized electronic notebook that he or she can replay at any time. The instructor can draw
sketches directly on a pen-based computer such as a tablet PC, and can also use a keyboard to type
or import materials (including PowerPoint slides, live web pages, and screen shots from other
programs) for use in class. Whatever the teacher draws, writes, types, or imports is immediately
displayed on each student's machine. The latest version of
Vision (5.1), includes audio recording functionality not available previously.
This feature allows instructors to capture and store audio on a DyKnow server (a licensed product
that users must purchase), which allows students to replay lectures synchronized with panels
(slides that show the content created by the instructor or students)

Sonic Foundry's Mediasite application "
allows students to customize their learning environment; they can individualize their experience in
a way that they can't in a conventional classroom. For example, Mediasite allows students to
increase the listening speed of a lecture or slow it down, and the audio pitch stays clear. It
allows students who want to multitask to watch it faster; they can even isolate and view specific
sections of lectures."
- VideoNotes from
Gotuit Media, allows students to edit lecture
content to create their own "video notebooks." Using VideoNotes, students can view entire lectures,
remix segments to create their own personal videos, or share videos with other users -- all without
altering the original full-length lecture video.
