Wouldn’t it be great to have a video playback of ALL your classes? You can with Lecture Capture – it’s like having a DVR to review lectures anywhere, for papers and tests. Ask your professor to start using it today!

I'm a high school teacher. I wish I could make a video of one of my favorite lectures to enter. Good luck to you newbies.
The videos so far have been interesting, like the "5 things not to let your do" & "10 things not to say to cops" but none of them were that interesting because they were just powerpoints with sound. The only video actually stepping into a professors shoes' was the most boring, the idea was good, but the message was given too manotone to pay attention to for longer than 5 seconds let alone 5 minutes.
The idea of students stepping into a professors shoes' sounds very interesting, and I think it could inspire future teachers when they consider how they want to teach.
