Weekly Quercus Updates

This week: Quercus Assignments Update, This Week's Faculty Question: I am trying to upload lecture video recordings (from last year’s BB Collaborate) to my current course. I created a module for them and managed to upload a few but now I am getting an "Error 400" message for the rest. Does that mean there is some sort of storage problem? Can I get my course storage quota increased so I can upload the rest of my videos?

Don't forget to hit record!

If possible, it is recommended that you record any live course sessions, to allow access for those who were not able to attend, had technical difficulties, or perhaps were unable to access the tech required to attend. This is, of course, a personal decision – thank you for considering it. Additionally, if you have PDFs or other annotated files, these could be shared with your class as well (pre- allows them to follow along; post- allows them to review).

Planning Effective and Efficient Screencast Content

Define your learning objectives

Write these from the learner's point of view - what will they be able to do once they've participated in your learning module? By articulating these before you begin, you're most likely to cover your main points without too much wandering. Keep in mind that the ideal length for a concept video is under 8 minutes. When defining your outcomes, it might help to think about how long it will take you to teach that concept and how you might break larger concepts down to smaller ones.
