Hello Chris,

I would be interested in the paper too. 

Thanks in advance,

Hi Olaf,

We studied several large second year STEM cohorts, two in Chemistry and one
in the Biosciences.  Number of students in these classes ranged from 300-600
people (for each class), and about half used lecture capture.

We saw lots of interesting trends but the most important one was that the
only group that showed a gain in marks (and they showed a 9-15% gain in
marks) that was statistically significant were the students who used lecture
capture regularly (every week).  So just "using" lecture capture isn't
enough, you need to look at how students are using it.  A secondary finding
that is interesting is that a lot of students are using lecture capture
facilities right before the midterm examination, and their marks don't
outperform those of their peers.

The paper for this will be submitted in the next couple of weeks, anyone who
is interested in a preprint copy should just email me.  Regards,

Chris

Thanks, Mike. I think this goes back to discussions we had a couple of years
ago about "anecdotal studies" supporting the case for lecture recording -
based on single courses and a very limited number of students. However, with
n>100 and a quite a number of courses, your case study comes closer to the
kind of argument one would be looking for from a didactical perspective (I
think Stuart's argument was more towards the effectiveness in production).
Anyone can back this up, maybe even with a comparison of students
with/without access to lecture recordings in the same course?
