WHITE PAPER
The New Imperative for Lecture Capture Solutions in Higher Education
Lecture capture is fast becoming a "must-have" technology in higher education, as shown in WR's latest white paper, The New Imperative for Lecture Capture Solutions in Higher Education. This free white paper is based on a survey that shows that four out of five higher education respondents believe lecture capture is a competitive differentiator, and is highly accepted by digital natives (learners) and faculty alike. Topics covered in the survey of more than 160 higher education practitioners and technology buyers and analyzed in the white paper include attitudes towards lecture capture, the business and pedagogical benefits provided by lecture capture, and how affordability and today’s educational imperatives are driving adoption.
This white paper, sponsored by TechSmith, explores and demonstrates how today's lecture capture solutions are true game changers. -

RESEARCH STUDY
H.264 SVC: A Technical Assessment
An Examination of the Features, Benefits, and Claims of this Emerging Videoconferencing Standard
Scalable video coding (SVC) is the latest standard gaining traction in the videoconferencing world. As is often the case with new technology, particularly when the technology has disruptive potential, there are many claims and counter claims from the new and the entrenched vendors. In this new study, Wainhouse Research details the causes of videoconferencing problems over IP networks and how the nature of scalable video coding addresses these issues. The 35-page report also details how the cost and performance characteristics of scalable video coding will affect videoconferencing end users and will change the market dynamics for both conferencing service providers and network service providers.
