See number of plays…
See when the video is played during the semester…
See which student played it, how many times, and for how long
In Kaltura now and in Echo from November
Combine with a quiz to measure engagement.

From Blackboard:• Course oversight dashboard (HOS, Deans etc)• Grades published direct to SI-net• Learning Object Repository• Improved user experience
Outside Blackboard• Lecture recording expansion• New course archiving to maintain materials for life of
degree• A range of new capabilities according to faculty needs
(discussed below)
Lecture Recording Opportunity
• Currently 40% of UQ’s 1600 courses /sem are recorded• We can add more safe capture devices @ $5.5K/room • Expect a move to pre-recorded learning material and rooms used
for active learning
ECHO “Safe Capture” devicesin theatres larger than 75 seats:
100 theatres now
ECHO “Classroom Capture” via lectern PC+ more Safecapture devices
+ pre-recorded material (PCAP/Kaltura)

What next? Collecting Ideas…
• Faculty surveys• Helpdesk 40 interactions/day• Staff training (1100/year)• Operational forum – with faculty reps• Bbug meetings – with other universities• Instructor surveys• T&L & TEL meetings• Elearning Strategy Committee• Conferences
An Elearning Helpdesk Week…
We get to hear what academics want and need through many contacts every day.
UQ students use our LMS more often than they do Facebook or our Library databases
based on 5000+ responses
UQ Student Survey - Mid 2012…
Faculties give feedback on their priorities…
Progress is tracked…
Asking faculties for 2014 priorities now…
• General change management support (local training, demonstrations etc.)
• Large Classes: Peer Assessment – Contribution to group work.
• Large Classes: Peer Assessment – Student assessment of each other’s work.
• Large Classes: Team/group focused collaborative solutions that support
• Large Classes: Peer review and collaborative writing in large cohorts
• Course communication and Q&A for effective support and peer assistance
• Creating and sharing sketches, diagrams, maths and symbols online
• ePortfolios (eg evidence repository, Student showcase, reflection tool, assessment tracking)
• E-exam software
• Rubric examples: create a shared repository (resource) , which contains Rubrics used within the university.
• Advice on how to devise a Rubric..Online invigilation service
• BYOD policy and equity program
• In-classroom tools for teaching and collaboration (e.g. screen sharing software, free text response etc.)
• Content management system
Many more…
E-exams – Issues and Discussion
Impetus• UQ is low on exam space• Instructors are experimenting with e-exams – e.g. UQBS;
Pharmacy • Some universities are adopting online proctoring: Penn State,
Harvard Distance Ed, Edx is using Pearson
Should UQ go down this track?
Advantages: Less printing or space; richer test experience (e.g. randomised question pools, heat-map questions etc.)
Challenges: Which computer (Lab/Test Centre/BYOD); Which proctor (UQ/collaborative/external); Identification of students online; Cost (Now $10+bld, Online Proctor:$60/student, Test Centre: $400/exam)
