Lecture capture (LC) has been implemented globally to enhance accessible resources supporting academic success. Little is known about the effects of teaching students how to effectively use LC to augment learning. This correlational pilot study used a 14-item Likert-like survey to examine relationships between undergraduate LC viewing practices…

Videos of classroom lectures have proven to be a popular and versatile learning resource. A key shortcoming of the lecture video format is accessing the content of interest hidden in a video.
