titleDo I have to edit my recording before publishing ?

No you don't. Many users of Lecturecast are quite happy for their recordings to be automatically made available. In most cases editing should not be necessary but it is important, for example, where personal conversations between staff and students may have been accidentally recorded The choice whether or not to make recordings automatically available is available can be made at the point of scheduling. Instructors may also make available/unavailable any recording.

titleDo I have to deliver my lecture differently ?

There are a couple of things worth remembering that reduce possible ambiguities in recordings.

  • Questions from the floor are often faint in the recording as it is usually only the presenter who has a microphone - by repeating or paraphrasing the question before answering both question and response are clear in the final recording.
  • It's best to use the computer cursor /mouse to highlight particular areas of the slide/presentation when they are being referred to - devices like laser or physical pointers will not be captured
  • The cameras used by Lecturecast will not effectively record materials being written on white boards. If you need to draw or write or mark-up materials during your presentation it's best to use the in-theatre document camera.
