Integrating Production and Distribution of Lecture Related Media into an LMS

Abstract

Production and distribution of lecture related media, especially lecture recordings are becoming more and more important. To produce, distribute and manage this media several independent software packages are commonly used. There is no single place to go for lectures to control these processes. This way they have to get in contact with technical staff beforehand and whenever they want to change the distribution of the media or the media itself. This paper shows how to simplify this processes and how to give the lecturer more control over his recordings by presenting an example integration of the lecturer recording and distribution systems Lernfunk and Opencast Matter horn into the Lecture Management System Stud.IP.
