As part of the University’s strategy to enhance Learning and Teaching, a multimedia enhancement project is now well underway to provide teaching staff a tool to record taught sessions, which will enable students to reVIEW the session in their own time. reVIEW (powered by Panopto) will be embedded and fully accessible via CANVAS, allows for the simultaneous capture of audio, video and applications (e.g. Microsoft PowerPoint) and the recording can be shared in a variety of ways during or after the presentation. reVIEW will also provide the university a video platform which makes it easy for lecturers and instructors to: - Flip the classroom - Record lectures - Live broadcast events - Create ‘how to’ videos - Offer video feedback on assignments - Allows for video assignment submissions There is a body of educational theory and research which supports the use of such tools to aid student learning. Indeed student feedback across the higher education sector has evaluated positively when multimedia enhanced tools are used in learning and teaching. One of the principal drivers behind using the reVIEW tool, is that teaching and learning materials can be reVIEWed by students, allowing for pacing of learning and for students to consolidate their learning. |
