Creation of High Quality Content
Dr Gottfried Maxerath, Moscow, 20th September 2011
Blended Learning:
Face to Face Lectures – eLearning (LMS) –
Distance Learning (LMS)
An LMS provides the framework for eLearning and Distance Learning
in which content is being presented to the students in a structured
way
The “conventional” creation of high quality content is hard and time
consuming (authoring, videos, multi media, drawings on smart boards
etc.)
The lifetime of the validity of information is getting shorter
continuously , the amount of new information is increasing
continuously (life long learning, vocational training)
A LOR does not solve the problems in principle
What is the “Essence” of an Institution of Higher
Education?
Why do students “pick” a particular institution?
What is behind the “good reputation” of an
institution?
What makes an institution “desirable”? (from a
student’s or lecturer’s point of view)
“Essence” (2)
Is it the over average IT infrastructure?
Is it the nice buildings / cafeterias / dorms?
Is it the library?
Is it anything “tangible”?
The PEOPLE
The People working at an institution, their lectures,
their tutorials, their seminars are the cause of the
reputation and make this institution desirable
(And without those people the IT infrastructure and
all the other nice things would not be there either)
Let’s make use of those People by:
Knowledge Capture
Preserves the latest content created by the
lecturers and makes it available over the internet
as a live broadcast or for later viewing within
minutes, whereby the links are published on
portals or within an LMS
 Captures the lecturer’s knowledge:
Just ppt - bullet points/plain text put into an LMS
do not represent the lecturer’s knowledge (they
are boring)
 Gives the students a “being-in-class-feeling” by
simultaneously recording high quality video
streams, audio of the lecturer, ppt presentations,
screen captures

What you can do with Knowledge Capture
Examples
Build a library of reusable and searchable
(keywords, phrases) lecture recordings, review
sessions and tutorials (LOR)
 Record lectures (classes) that also use multi media
content (videos etc.) and give the students the
“real class experience”
 Record several HD video streams, ppt
presentation, screen capture, audio
 If required, edit the recording and/or add or insert
other sessions or videos or other files to the
recorded lecture

What you can do with Knowledge Capture
Examples

Add reading materials to the recording for
downloading
Provide the students with tutorials or preparatory
material for next class
Recordings of role play (medicine, physiotherapy
etc.)
Recordings of surgery, experiments etc.
Teach sign language
Put the links to the Captures into LMS

And much more…..

Benefits to the Students
Access from home or work at any time to brand
new content, to searchable lectures; the students
can follow the discussions in the class, take their
own searchable notes
 Access to all lectures of the courses the students
are enrolled in or to all recordings in the library
 The students can review content, prepare for next
class or exams, communicate with one another
and with the lecturer…..
