Creating Screen Casts and Implementing a

Compliant Streaming Media Solution

Evolving Video Trend in Course Design:

Evolving Video Trend in Course Design:

“Video appears poised to be a major

contributor to the shift in the educational

landscape, acting as a powerful agent

that adds value and enhances the

quality of the learning experience.”

Evolving Video Trend in Course Design:

“Video is permeating our educational

institutions, transforming the way we

teach, learn, study, communicate, and

work.

Harnessing the power of video to

achieve improved outcomes – for

example, a better grade in exams /

assignments or more effective knowledge

transfer – is becoming an essential skill.”

Evolving Video Trend in Course Design:

“As we become increasingly accustomed

to using video in every aspect of our daily

lives, students and educators expect to

encounter video in every step of the

educational process, … .”

Evolving Types of Video in Course Design:

- Lecture Capture

- Screen Cast

Evolving Types of Video in Course Design:

- Lecture Capture

“Live lecture capture may be the first step into video

teaching. A camera is positioned in the lecture room and the

lecturer gives their traditional lecture to a live audience and

the lecture is recorded for future playback”.

- Woolfitt, Zac. The effective use of video in higher education.

October 2015. p. 30.

Evolving Types of Video in Course Design:

- Screen Cast

“A screencast is a digital recording of computer screen

output, also known as a video screen capture, … . …, a

screencast is essentially a movie of the changes over time

that a user sees on a computer screen, enhanced with audio

narration.”
