Hi Judith, At Hofstra professors frequently assign streaming video for students to watch outside of class time. Preserving class time for discussion of the content.

A quick added question: are teachers ever assigning streams to their students' syllabi for them to watch at home, as they would, say, a book or article?

Are you folks transitioning over to Blu-ray? Do DVDs still have a place in libraries? How much of your new purchases are streaming as opposed to physical media? Best, Scott Petersen Producer/Director "Hitchhiking to the Edge of Sanity" www.HitchhikingDocumentary.com<http://www.HitchhikingDocumentary.com> VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
