A number of colleges and universities are implementing mini lecture-recording tools in their video studios that allow instructors to face the camera while also writing on a transparent surface.  This allows instructors to illustrate lessons with a diagram or explain a formula without blocking the written content with their bodies and without turning their backs to their students.

The technology is especially valuable for instructors in science, math, or technology, who often must work through formulae or explain complex processes using illustrations. The resulting lectures are easy to watch, the text or sketch stays visible as it is produced, and the lecturer’s face remains a natural part of the presentation. Slide images are made more interesting and immediate by handwritten annotations added during a lecture or explanation. A quick video can help students having trouble with homework, providing an option for explanation that does not use valuable class time.
