David, The reservations paused by teaching staff in universities brings a whole new perspective to recorded lectures. I once had a meeting with the former VC of Virtual University of Uganda - Prof Michele Lejeune, and 2 things that he said to me still ring in my head to date:- 1. If a lecturer's course content remains static for 2 semesters then he / she has no business teaching that unit. Education is dynamic, you cannot use the same content year in year out! 2. Lectures MUST allocate a LIVE SESSION every week to discuss with students (mandatory to attend) the content that was to be covered that week. Taking ONLY these 2 points into consideration, it would be foolhardy for any learning institution to feel that it can replace student - teacher interaction with recorded lectures. Having said that, I think the lecturer and universities have to put the student first as he / she is the reason behind the existence of the institution and the creation of the teaching job. However, universities need to be sensitive to teachers' rights. My 2 cents 😊 THK On Fri, Aug 21, 2020, 8:51 AM David Indeje via kictanet < kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:
