LIT is looking for faculty and staff members to try our newly implemented Kaltura Building Block for Blackboard in the Fall 2016 and Spring 2016 semesters. The goal of this pilot is to assess user experience with this tool prior to wider implementation as well as to compare it to other tools currently in use.
The features include:
- Webcam and screen recording right in your Bb course
- Basic video editing
- Clipping (no need to break longer videos into segments)
- Multiple choice questions can be inserted into the video to improve student engagement
- Easy sharing with other faculty and staff within Bb
- Embeding videos into Bb discussions and quizzes
- Student video creation and uploading
Use cases may include:
- Recording introductions or announcements
- Recording in-class lectures for later review
- Assigning video production or presentations to students
