A workshop for anyone interested in using the Tegrity course capture system will be held Monday, June 2, from 9-11AM in 232 Gordon Palmer. Tegrity is a web-based tool that automatically records classroom lecture audio and synchronizes it with any visuals displayed through a classroom projector. Students can then view recordings using a link in the eLearning course management system.

Tegrity was used to record 1,168 lectures in 84 course sections in the Spring 2008 semester. The recordings were viewed 44,957 times by 10,777 users for a total of more than 15,000 hours.

Contact eTech at 348-4832 or etech@as.ua.edu to register or for more information.

At the request of several faculty members, the Faculty Resource Center has created the Faculty Idea Exchange, an interactive forum where faculty can share ideas and questions about new and emerging technologies, discuss ideas and issues related to instructional technology, and and demonstrate how they are using technology. To join the Faculty Idea Exchange in eLearning, please contact Rachel Shuttlesworth at rshuttle@frc.ua.edu.
