Using Bespoke ReView Screencasts to Enhance the Student Learning Experience in Chemical Engineering
Reaction engineering is a core chemical engineering topic that relies heavily on integral calculus and mathematical modelling. At Teesside University, it is taught in modules across two years – simple reactor modelling at Level 5, and complex reactor modelling at Level 6.
Whilst many students demonstrate high levels of attainment on both modules, the topic is considered challenging and a significant proportion struggle to master the mathematics contained within.
Piloting ReView Scheduled Recording
As you may know, many teaching staff are opting to record their lectures using Teesside’s ReView Lecture Capture system powered by Panopto.

Bite-size is effectively ‘chunking’ relevant content into manageable nuggets of information. It is a great way to engage learners who prefer snappy, accessible and easy to remember content. Making information available in digestible portions provides students with the opportunity to work through material in stages, allowing them to focus on topics, which results in deeper, more meaningful learning…
Staff and Student feedback on ReView
ReView (powered by Panopto) allows lectures and teaching sessions taking place in equipped rooms to be recorded and then accessed by students at a later date through Blackboard. Recorded sessions can include seminars, tutorials, laboratory sessions and practice-based sessions as well as the more traditional lectures. The same ReView system also allows a wide range of learning and teaching materials to be recorded, which can provide additional resources for students…
Addressing Four Common Lecture Capture Concerns Shared by Many Academics
Over the last year at Teesside University, a new lecture capture system branded as ReView has been rolled out to all Lecture Theatres and General Purpose Teaching Rooms. Although referred to as a Lecture Capture system, ReView (powered by Panopto)
