  • Lightboard Recording Studio

    The CETL Educational Technologies office would like to announce that after undergoing upgrades and improvements, the Lightboard Recording Studio is once again open and available for scheduled use in Rowe 425.

    The Lightboard Recording Studio is a unique and versatile recording space that UConn instructors can use to record presentation and lectures videos.  The Lightboard studio is equipped with a high definition camera, green/black screen background, professional multi-point lighting, a transparent whiteboard, and 2 direct-view screens to display slide contents and notes.  With these tools, instructors can record high-quality instructional videos beyond what is possible with standard desktop recording software such as Kaltura Capture.  Like classroom lecture recordings, Lightboard recordings automatically upload to the user’s Kaltura account, which can then be easily added to any HuskyCT course.  These high-quality video recordings can add instructor presence to the course, provide supplemental explanation to clarify and elaborate on difficult concepts, and help students review and learn at their own pace.

    Summer 2025 can be a great time to focus on making new or updated videos to enhance your teaching and student learning outcomes. Book your Lightboard sessions soon to ensure you can select your preferred dates and times.
