perception of multiple stakeholders.

Lecture Capture- Introduction and background
• Lecture Capture Technology is a system that provides an umbrella for
recording lecture sessions using an IT Software.
• Nowadays, online capture of lectures have become more prominent
in universities and other HEIs (Rui et al., 2004; Zhu and Bergom, 2010)
yielding outstanding results although this has not been with several
other issues which this study focuses on.

Research Context- UKPSF Framework
Areas of Activity
(A1) Design and plan learning
activities and/or programmes of study
(A2) Teach and/or support learning
(A3) Assess and give feedback to
learners
(A4) Develop effective learning
environments and approaches to
student support and guidance
(A5) Engage in continuing professional
development in subjects/disciplines
and their pedagogy, incorporating
research, scholarship and the
evaluation of professional practices
Core Knowledge
(K1) The subject material
(K2) Appropriate methods for
teaching, learning and assessment in
the subject area and at the level of the
academic programme
(K3) How students learn, both
generally and within their
subject/disciplinary area(s)
(K4) The use and value of
appropriate learning technologies
(K5) Methods for evaluating the
effectiveness of teaching
(K6) The implications of quality
assurance and quality enhancement
for academic and professional
practice with a particular focus on
teaching
Professional Values
(V1) Respect individual learners and diverse
learning communities
(V2) Promote participation in higher education and
equality of opportunity for learners
(V3) Use evidence-informed approaches and the
outcomes from research, scholarship and
continuing professional development
(V4) Acknowledge the wider context in which
higher education operates, recognising the
implications for professional practice
Research Framework
Drawing from the framework developed by Breen et al. (2001) on the
role of Information and Communication Technologies in a University
Learning Environment in which 16 features emerged, four key features
were selected as they bear direct relevance to this study.
Theses are:
Efficiency
Failure
Interactivity
Cost
Research Framework
Features Definitions
Efficiency Belief or judgement that information can be accessed
without wasting time or effort
Failure Belief or judgement that learning is impaired by
malfunction of learning tools or information sources
Interactivity Belief or judgement that a learning tool or information
source responds to characteristics of a user or query
Cost Belief or judgement that the use of a learning tool or
information source requires money to be spent
Extracted from Breen et al. (2001) p. 105
Methodology- Participants’ selection
Surveys were carried out on multiple stakeholders.
• For this study, we base our definition of stakeholders as those who can aaffect, or are
affected by the objectives of an organisation (Freeman, 1984).
• Furthermore, we adopt the selection criteria of Fassin (2009) who argues that
stakeholders that should be selected should fall under the category of either
stakewatchers or stakekeepers.
• Stakekewatchers: those stakeholders who look after a stake with care, attention and
scrutiny, just as watchdogs do (Fassin, 2009, p. 121).
• Stakekeepers: those who are even further removed from the active, real stakeholders:
the independent regulators, who have no stake in the firm but have influence and
control (Fassin, 2009, p. 121).
Methodology- sampling and survey
Following from our selection criteria, the stakeholder groups selected
for this study were
Lecturers- 50 respondents
Students- 50 respondents
Learning Technologists- 5 respondents
A purposive sampling technique was adopted because the survey was
targeted at respondents who have engaged with the lecture capture
tool (Panopto) for at least 12 weeks.

Results and Discussions: Summary
• Overall, LC has been perceived to be efficient, cost effective and a
success
• With respect to interactivity, there was no clear consensus that
interactivity amongst these stakeholders has been enhanced by LC
• There is a positive and negative correlation respectively between the
duration of LC use and its perceived efficiency and failure
• Positive correlations also exist between perceived cost and failure,
and perceived efficiency and interactivity.
Limitations and implications for further research
Limitation
Accessibility to wider respondents within the stakeholder groups
selected
Further Research
The research is still on going and based on our selection criteria, we
plan to carry out in depth semi structured interviews with at least two
more stakeholder groups- Solent Senior Management (VCG) and
Panopto Software developers.
