LectureMonkey transforms any classroom into a collaborative, interactive learning space by leveraging existing smartphones and the cloud.

HALLANDALE, FL, USA, October 12, 2015 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Lecture capture, peer learning, flipped and interactive classrooms are sought after tools in higher education. They have been shown to increase student satisfaction and enhance learning. However, these solutions are expensive and time consuming to implement – which is why they are implemented in only a fraction of classrooms.
LectureMonkey changes that by making lecture capture and interactive learning available to everyone with a smartphone and web connection. LectureMonkey transforms any classroom into a collaborative, interactive learning space by leveraging existing smartphones and the cloud. LectureMonkey makes lecture capture and interactive learning part of the normal classroom flow and requires no IT support.

It is no secret that students see great value in accessing lecture recordings in order to make up missed classes and review material prior to exams – and that it helps them get better grades. Active classrooms provide even more benefits – getting students to engage with the material during and after class – and is a proven way to increase grades and student satisfaction. Together they provide a blended learning experience that increases student learning and satisfaction.

“Self-service mobile lecture capture and active classroom is a break though, making it easy for students and faculty to collaboratively record, take notes and share any lecture for later review, requiring only their existing smartphone and web access” said Jacob Ukelson D.Sc., LectureMonkey founder. “LectureMonkey has lowered the barrier to entry making pervasive lecture capture and interactive classrooms available to everyone. LectureMonkey’s self-service, no IT approach puts lecture capture and active classrooms within everyone’s reach. LectureMonkey is not only dramatically cheaper than traditional lecture capture and active classroom systems, it is also more advanced”.

LectureMonkey can eliminate or postpone the need for an expensive commercial lecture capture system. LectureMonkey can also be used to augment existing lecture capture systems to capture lectures not currently being recorded - at no cost and without the need for IT support.

LectureMonkey combines collaborative lecture capture (high quality audio, images, and presentation slides) and collaborative comments into a crowd sourced, shared, multimedia summary of a class. LectureMonkey uses computer vision techniques and audio post processing to ensure the quality of the capture.
LectureMonkey is available for free in the Apple appstore and on the web.

Our mission is to be every class’ automated note taker and lecture capture system that makes it easy to capture every lecture, anywhere, anytime - while enhancing the lecture experience for both faculty and students.
