Tegrity: Survey Reveals Tegrity's Lecture Capture Technology Improves Learning for 95% of Student Users.
Fall 2010 Student Survey Results
With more than 6,800 unique student responses, we can't think of a larger survey of its kind. These detailed results provide valuable insight into how much students value Tegrity. Questions include:
Impact on grade
Depth of learning
Impact on attendance
Motivation to study
and much, much more
a recent survey of more than 9,000 college students at more than 200 different higher education institutions using Tegrity's cloud-based lecture capture solution revealed significant improvement in effectiveness of studying, with 95% of all respondents indicating Tegrity contributed to their learning process. The survey results, collected at the conclusion of all Fall 2010 semester courses in which Tegrity was used, place increased importance on the ability for students to access lectures on demand in order to achieve optimal learning outcomes.

Tegrity lecture capture improves student success, satisfaction and retention through greater academic achievement. This is accomplished through broad use of a lecture capture learning system that is personalized for students and faculty, encouraging engagement and collaboration. Tegrity is best positioned to realize these benefits by providing deep integration, cloud-based service, and student-centric features that are tailored to student learning styles AND life styles.
Tegrity is a cloud-based lecture capture service that enables institutions to automatically capture, store, and index every class – on and off campus – for later review by every student, anytime, anywhere. Students can access the recorded material through a wide variety of devices, from a PC or Mac to an iPhone or other mobile device. Being a cloud-based service, Tegrity does not require the purchase, installation, maintenance or management of any special hardware, software or servers, making it both affordable and scalable for institutions of any size. Following is a partial list of Tegrity’s unique capabilities:
• Student Recording- Students can be further engaged by recording assignments, projects, presentations and speeches. The student recordings can be viewed by the instructor and shared with the entire class.
• Instructors stay in control, but Tegrity is very easy to use- Instructors click a single button to start/pause/stop their recording. Instructors also have editing control, and control over how the recording will be created and published for students, such as streaming, download, podcast and vodcast, MP3, and printing of visual slides from the Tegrity recording.
• Once the recording is stopped, the entire process of indexing, publishing, and storing is completely automatic. By fully automating the entire end-to-end process of capturing, indexing, publishing and storing recorded classes across the campus, Tegrity eliminates the maintenance and support costs associated with other lecture capture solutions.
• Tegrity’s innovative AAIRS (Automatic Authentication and Integration with Real-time Synchronization) technology completely automates the connection to your course management system or other datasets of users, courses and enrollments, making it simple and automatic for faculty, and provides a very personalized learning experience for students.
• Search Anything- students can search for a word or phrase presented as text during the class. All text is indexed and automatically becomes searchable, not only in a single class recording, but across all recordings in an entire course.
• Smart Bookmarks- While in class, students can use their laptop, mobile phone, iPhone or iPod Touch to set bookmarks to designate points that may be unclear or to highlight important review information. Later, while reviewing the recording, they will see their bookmarks and can easily click on them to review that part of the lecture. They can also add new bookmarks while reviewing.
• Tegrity Connect- Students can instantly communicate and collaborate with each other and with other students and instructors enrolled in their classes in order to get help on the part of the lecture they were viewing.
• Live WebCast – When initiating a recording, instructors can choose to also webcast the material live to students enrolled in the class.
