Abstract

A traditional form of teaching in the classroom is for the teacher to define and solve a problem, writing the solution down on a chalkboard. Since the teacher can talk about the process of solving the problem whilst writing the solution out, the student has time to comprehend the solution method. However, this time spent is a disadvantage if classroom time is limited. Many teachers also rely on the method when engaged in one-to-one discussions with the students, and most faculty members at University level teaching institutions have some form of whiteboard/chalkboard in their office. We present a simple method of capturing the whiteboard tutorial in a media file, allowing the content to be played as often as the student wishes. The design, content and production process has been deliberately kept simple to minimize the preparation time required by faculty and media technology staff.
