titleWhat is Lecturecast?

Lecturecast allows for the scheduling and recording of lectures in Lecturecast enabled UCL teaching spaces to support student learning.
Recordings can then be made available to students via Moodle courses.

titleWhat about recordings made in the previous Lecturecast system?

Content recorded using the Lecturecast system prior to the upgrade will continue to be available via the old Lecturecast system for at least a year after the upgrade. No new recordings can be made on the Lecturecast Legacy system but existing links to recordings held there will continue to function for at least a year post upgrade. No automatic migration of old recordings will take place. Find out more about Lecturecast Legacy and how to migrate individual recordings in the Lectuirecast Legacy sectionsystem have been migrated to Lecturecast. You can reuse recordings from previous academic years by publishing them to current Lecturecast sections..
