A useful lesson deserves more than a single showing. Recording a teacher’s explanation, a practical demonstration or a guest presentation gives students another opportunity to revisit it when they need it.
The IQVideo LCS910 is a portable lecture capture system that brings together cameras, audio and recording controls in a kit schools can move between learning spaces. Here are some practical ways it could fit into your school’s teaching and training.
The LCS910 includes a video station with a 15.6-inch touchscreen, two wireless pan-tilt-zoom cameras with tripods and a wireless lapel microphone, packed into a carry case. Rechargeable batteries and wireless connectivity reduce the need for fixed cabling, while the cameras connect automatically to the video station.
Teachers can start recording using the touchscreen and combine camera views with presentation materials supplied through external devices. A web-based directing platform also allows remote camera control, source switching and recording management. Explore the IQVideo LCS910’s features.
Some explanations are worth keeping. A worked maths example, an introduction to a new topic or an exam revision session can become a useful resource beyond the original lesson.
Consider starting with short recordings that address questions students regularly ask. Give each recording a clear topic and share it through your school’s chosen platform so students know where to find it.
This approach can also help students catch up after an absence, with teachers identifying which recordings are relevant to the work they missed.
Practical subjects often involve details that are difficult for an entire class to see at once. Suggested uses include recording a science experiment, an art technique or a workshop demonstration.
The LCS910’s two cameras offer different viewpoints, and its optical zoom can help frame the detail being explained. Its wireless lapel microphone captures the presenter’s explanation alongside the visuals. View the camera and audio features.
For a useful teaching resource, plan the camera positions around the task and break longer demonstrations into manageable stages.
A short introductory video can give students a starting point before they arrive in class. Teachers could record an explanation of key terminology or a demonstration students will later attempt themselves.
Pair the recording with a question or small preparation task. Class time can then focus on practising the skill, discussing ideas and working through areas students found difficult.
Recording internal training gives staff somewhere to return when they need a refresher. Useful topics could include equipment demonstrations, induction sessions and teaching strategies shared by colleagues.
Start with the sessions your team repeats most often. Assign someone to review the recordings periodically so new staff receive information that remains accurate and relevant.
A visiting speaker’s session can spark discussions long after the event. Recording it creates opportunities for follow-up classroom activities or viewing by another year group.
Before the session, agree with the presenter how the recording will be used and identify the parts most relevant to students. A focused presentation with a clear purpose is more useful than a growing collection of recordings nobody revisits.
Think about what you want to record, where sessions take place and how students or staff will access the finished videos.
