Lecture Capture Drives Academic Gains at Saint Mary's U - Dian Schaffhauser, Campus Technology
A new study by Saint Mary's University of Minnesota concluded that students who used the on-campus lecture capture archives, recorded by Tegrity, tended to have a higher cumulative GPA than those who didn't. Tegrity Campus 2.0 is a Web service that captures classroom lectures and digital materials for playback. Saint Mary's initially deployed Tegrity in a proof of concept study with a small number of faculty teaching undergraduate courses. Based on the success of the initial study, the university expanded campus-wide in the spring of 2006. Within five semesters, more than half the faculty had adopted Tegrity's class capture service across several departments and more than 100 course sections, including courses offered to non-traditional and adult learners.
