APP TO RECORD LECTURES AND TAKE NOTES PRO
The iPad is connected to my MacBook Pro (however, any other computer that is able to act as a fully-capable AirPlay receiver will do). The main idea is simple (TL DR): I am usingġ2.9-inch Apple iPad Pro, coupled with Apple Pencil, from which I can project slides, do hand writing (essentially think of it as a digital white-board or an overhead projector) or browse web, etc.
APP TO RECORD LECTURES AND TAKE NOTES SOFTWARE
In other words, no distractions just the essence.īelow I provide description of the setup, with a disclaimer that it is based on Apple hardware and some non-free software tools. In this setup, only lecture content is recorded (i.e., slides, board and of course voice, optionally my face) and not the entire classroom, as is the case in camcorder-based solution. Last semester I switched to a new setup, that effectively gives me complete control over how I deliver content (slides, hand-writing, live coding, etc.) while allowing me to record video and audio in HD. I should note that UB provides classrooms that have built-in hardware for video-recording (that records automatically for you), however, from my perspective the issue of quality remains. However, this setup had one advantage: switching between, slides and black-/white-board was essentially seamless, giving me flexibility in how I deliver my content. The solution was very suboptimal: it required someone to operate camcorder, and video quality was not the best, especially when a classroom was dim.
Additionally, it gives me the ability to review my lectures for potential improvements.įor a very long time my recording setup was based on a camcorder with a wireless mic transmitter/receiver. At the same time, it gives students flexibility in reviewing lectures on-demand, and at the pace they find comfortable. Contrary to some opinions, posting lecture videos does not decrease in-class attendance (and no – I am not enforcing attendance in any way, say, by sign-in sheets). One technique that I found highly effective when teaching, is recording all my lectures, and making lecture videos available to students almost immediately after the class (UB provides Panopto to students and faculty). Index Simple Setup for Lectures Recording MotivationĪt University at Buffalo (UB) I regularly offer a set of somewhat diverse courses: CSE 470/570, BMI503, BMI577/CSE577.
