Title:

Engage and Inspire Them: How to Harness Lecture-Capture Technology to Improve Student Retention, Satisfaction and Grades

When:

Recast Available Anytime, Just Click Below and Register to Begin

Description:

Many of today's students juggle the demands of work, family and study. Economic conditions, time, and geographical limitations impede their ability to access education and complete their selected programs. "Lecture Capture" technology has proven to be an invaluable resource for bridging this gap. But can a lecture capture system really improve student retention, satisfaction and grades? can it impact student engagement and increase participation in the classroom? Does the ability to review lectures multiple times, in part or in whole, from any location at anytime, using a browser, iPod or cell phone truly enhance students' ability to learn and grasp concepts? Join us as students form colleges and universities from across the country share first-hand experience with Tegrity, the only class-capture solution delivered as a web service for higher education. Hear for yourself how it's revolutionizing the student learning experience. Simple recordings of classes aren't enough. Students want more, such as the ability to search across recordings from an entire course, to pinpoint specific moments in a lecture by simply typing in any word or phrase that was presented during a class, or to review lectures with their preferred platform from anywhere, anytime.

Title:

Recruiting and Retaining the Students of Tomorrow

When:

Recast Available Anytime-Just Click Below and Register to Begin

Description:

Colleges and universities are experiencing record enrollments as a result of a population boom begun in the 1980s. Yet experts predict that, as the boom subsides over the next 10 years, enrollments will decrease as the number of high school graduates declines. On the other hand, the impact of immigrant groups represents a dramatic reshaping of the U.S. population. This demographic shift will radically alter the face of higher education in many states, presenting new challenges to colleges and universities in how they recruit and retain students of this next generation. Join our panelists for a frank discussion on how these changes will impact higher education.
