This is an area I&#8217;ve been interested in for a year or so, and it&#8217;s an application of lecture capture where the benefits are, on the face of it, pretty obvious.<\/p>\n<p>Elite athlete students face challenges due to extended periods away from campus for central training camps and competition. Currently, in the case of sports-related absence which\u00a0might affect assessment, elite athlete students\u00a0can make use of\u00a0the University\u2019s Assessment Flexibility policy if they are representing their country in an international competition, or at a squad training camp. But\u00a0this\u00a0can be\u00a0disruptive to the student\u2019s studies and life in general, so it would\u00a0help everyone concerned (including module tutors) if the need for this could be avoided through capturing lectures and providing\u00a0other forms of online support.<\/p>\n<p>The use of lecture capture has already been piloted in a limited way to support athletes having to spend time away from campus; for instance, the 2012 Olympic hockey bronze medal winner Laura Unsworth had lectures on two modules captured in semester 2\u00a0this year\u00a0specifically because she was going to be away at a national squad training camp. Monty Panesar, the\u00a0Loughborough graduate England cricketer, is back studying for an MBA, and <a title=\"Monty Panesar - recorded lectures\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lboro.ac.uk\/departments\/sbe\/news\/press-releases\/2013\/2013-3-1.html\" target=\"_blank\">he too has had lectures recorded<\/a>.\u00a0 With over 500 elite athlete students across multiple sports currently studying at Loughborough, there are\u00a0potentially many more students who would benefit from being supported this way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the support of colleagues from Loughborough Sport, we&#8217;ve just submitted a research grant application focused on the use of lecture capture to support elite athlete students.
