From E-Learning to Active Learning: Transforming the Learning Environment
The document outlines UCL's transformation from traditional e-learning to more interactive active learning environments, emphasizing the use of technology like Lecturecast to enhance teaching effectiveness. It details successful strategies for flipping the classroom, where lectures are recorded for students to review prior to class, allowing for more interactive and personalized learning experiences during scheduled sessions. The authors discuss the benefits and concerns surrounding lecture capture and live streaming of lectures, highlighting both student engagement and potential drawbacks in attendance and participation.

- 10. • Personal capturesoftware downloaded to desktop • Standard camera and microphone – built in options work fine • The usual Microsoft Office documents + any bespoke images etc. you wish to include • Graphics tablet (optional, but can add a lot) – I used Wacom/Bamboo Equipment
- 11. • Record lecturesin advance – at home, in the office, even outside. Use Lecturecast -- Easy. • Ask students to view lecture before timetabled lecture slot. • Ask students to upload 3 questions each with timings based on the lecture – and send these questions to Moodle. • Take a poll of the most popular, say, 10, questions. • Go to the timetabled lecture slot with questions: interact, debate, solve problems with the students. What to do

- 13. • Students caninteract with lecturers on questions that interest them/problems they want to work through. • Students/lecturers get better relationships in terms of mentoring/personal contact etc. • Submitting questions is part of formative assessment so everyone is involved in the learning. • Active learning: lecture times can be used for summative assessments: short tests, blog pieces, group work, debates. Good things about this

- 18. Feedback from studentsurvey Of the lectures you watched online, how many did you also attend in person?
- 19. • “Lecturecast: moreuseful than when the lecture was attended in person as you can replay sections of the lecture and perhaps did not understand the first time and pause it to take notes.” Student comment, UCL Student IT Survey, January 2013 Good uses of technology
- 20. • “Lecturecast andslides online. Without these, attending lectures in October is completely useless by the time you get to summer exams, as I can't write everything fast enough at the time or remember what they said.” Student comment, UCL Student IT Survey, January 2013 Good uses of technology
- 21. • “Using Lecturecast.This has really helped to go over the parts of the lecture which I didn't fully understand / didn't have time to write down so quickly. It helps me to consolidate smaller parts of the lecture, as I can pause whenever I wish to do so.” Student comment, UCL Student IT Survey, January 2013 Good uses of technology
- 22. • “Lecturecast extremelyhelpful for statistics lectures - I come from a humanities background and initially struggled with subject matter. Being able to listen to each lecture more than once was hugely helpful.” Student comment, UCL Student IT Survey, January 2013 Good uses of technology
- 23. • “Lecturecast togetherwith discussion forums afterwards. Promotes understanding via discussion and further question could be asked.” Student comment, UCL Student IT Survey, January 2013 Good uses of technology

- 29. Interactivity • Access –own devices, Choice – on- demand, search, Control – start, stop, pause, review (Rosenberg 2001) • Popular at UCL: “we can listen to the lectures again for better understanding of the topics!“ • Big users non-native speakers of English and the “very motivated” (Stewart, 2012)
- 30. Interactivity • A transmissionmodel of learning? (Jouvelakis 2009, Smithers 2011) • Davis (2009) - students are "actively choosing specific sections of content to review rather than passively revisiting entire lectures”. • “...an active learning activity *that+ provides them with additional control and interaction with the material“

- 42. • “I disagreestrongly with being able to stream lectures live - why should I bother coming in to teach if none of the students can be bothered. it should work both ways if this is to be implemented, i.e. possibility of the teaching to happen remotely too.” Staff comment, UCL Student IT Survey, January 2013 Live streaming
