Broadcasting live/recorded lectures

by Rob Phillips.

A colleague at Murdoch asks:
Has any university been recording lectures at a home campus and then playing them for students during the classtime at a satellite campus? What feedback has been received from staff and students?
Do any universities record at the home campus and then ask students at satellite campus to view the recording plus attend a lecture where they are presented with additional content or activities? If yes, do students feel that they have an increased workload with having to watch the recordings and attend a lecture?

Any relevant information would be appreciated.

Using laptops for exams

by Rob Phillips.

Hi everyone,

I heard a throwaway comment from someone at ACODE 51 about how students are doing their exams on computers rather than handwriting. There was also the article in last week's Higher Ed Supplement at http://www.theaustralian.com.au/higher-education/laptops-pass-the-big-exam/story-e6frgcjx-1225798847988. It just seems dumb that the only time we require students to use handwriting is for a high-stakes activity such as an exam.

What is the current state of play with regards to doing exams on computers? Are you doing anything at your university?

Cheers
Rob
