As new technology becomes more available, it gives teaching a new lease on life. More and more teachers seek out newer and more varied teaching methods and tools to imple-ment in their bag of tricks. A popular tool is the recording of lectures and providing it as alternative material for those who are not capable of attending the lecture themselves. However creating video/online-material on top of all the other material that teachers have to keep track of creates more stress. An easier alternative would be to capture/stream the lecture itself, than to compose material outside of the classroom.
As popularity for capturing/streaming lectures increases, Metropolia is also looking for a suitable solution to this ever increasing desire. The aim of this thesis is to research and compare a select few of these solutions and deduce if such a system is applicable to Metropolia’s needs.
Teachers that want to utilise audio-visual material must produce it during regular teaching hours, due to limited resources. To alleviate the pressure, teachers should com-bine the use of already available online material/aides with their current curriculum. This includes capturing and streaming the on-going lecture, rather than creating audio-visual material outside of class.
