Experiences with lecture capture : how is learning affected?

Abstract

Many institutions have considered recording lectures, often referred to as lecture capture, as a response to the call for increased digitalization in higher education. The literature review in this chapter shows mixed results regarding the effect of lecture capture on attendance and exam results and shows only to a limited extent how this technology affects the learning situation. To build knowledge in this field, this study presents experiences from the introduction of lecture capture at a Norwegian university. The findings shed light on the contested space between the attitudes of students, and lecturers, possible consequences of the implementation of lecture capture, and how the theoretical perspective on learning leads to different conclusions.
