Capturing and Disseminating What Happens in the Classroom - Hubert Daugherty, Julie Cohn, and G. Anthony Gorry, Educause Quarterly
Universities increasingly employ information technology to distribute elements of their educational programs beyond campus borders and to find new uses for the intellectual capital they produce. Some faculty, with varying support and success, are moving course materials—and sometimes courses themselves—to the Internet to reach wider audiences. Institutions may record selected presentations—formal lectures by prominent visitors and other special events—to digitize and serve over the Web. For many outside the university, however, the quintessential campus experience is the interaction of a good teacher and bright, eager students in a classroom. Many would welcome the chance to observe this interaction, even if they could not participate directly. Although instructors commonly put reading lists or papers on the Web for wider audiences, such postings do not convey this important, but ephemeral, classroom experience.
