Title: Do you need to be enrolled in a subject to watch video lectures for it?
Post by: rife168 on February 23, 2012, 08:49:45 pm
I can access the LMS because of UMEP, and I was wondering if there was a way that I could watch video lectures for math/science stuff?

Not unless you know the lectopia URL for the subjects (or you know someone that can give you the URL, otherwise you'd have to guess it, and there's a LOT of subjects), and those subjects aren't restricted to only those enrolled in the subject.

You can try this: http://troll.nitrated.net/lectopia/

Don't bother clicking on the subject names as those links are dead. Use the +s to open links to the lectures.

Didn't know that existed, that's pretty useful for uni students too. Cheers!

Just audio? So the lectures aren't video taped? :(

Most lectures have screen capture as well. So you'll have the audio and whatever was happening on the screen at the same time.

Don't think that link will work anymore. They've replaced Lectopia with Echo360... Goodbye Lectopia :(

They're still hosting lectopia so the links still work.

As for echo360, it seems that it's made by the people who made lectopia as well as others. UI looks a lot better too.

Ok, umm, I have no idea how to access the lectopia, echo360 or whatever it's called
I know the accelerated mathematics lecture was recorded, but how do I access it?

I'm not sure for you subject, but for others like chemistry and physics haven't been put up yet. Where i found the biology lecture recorded was in the LMS. Once you click on your subject, go to lecture and its usually there either at the top or bottom. But, still not to sure about others, I guess they are pretty last today.

Do any of the subject links work for anyone (As in recorded lectures come up?)? Are any recorded lectures actually been uploaded yet?

Because of the change to ECCO, I doubt any new lectures will be uploaded to that website unless they change it.

Hi, I made the website linked to above (Sorry for the necromancy). 

The new recording system (using Echo) is locked down enough to prevent me from being able to index them as I did lectopia. 
Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any way around this problem, which is a shame.
