Creating instructional media at IU
At Indiana University, Academic Media Production Spaces (AMPS) are recording facilities for faculty use, with technology suited for producing high-quality instructional audio and video content. Some of these spaces are full-service facilities staffed with video production professionals who work in collaboration with the faculty member to create mediated academic content while others are self-serve facilities where the faculty member is in control of the technology. Intended to be an improvement on do-it-yourself instructional media production, these spaces provide the technology to produce content of a higher quality allowing greater student engagement and retention.
Available services within all Academic Media Production Spaces include:
- Recording of audio and video content using state of the art equipment.
- Superimposition of faculty over backgrounds which can include PowerPoint presentations, motion video, images, maps, etc.
- The ability to record handwriting on screen.
Depending on the type of Academic Media Production Space, other capabilities are available.
