Ask HN: Do any colleges live stream their lectures?

17 pointsby 3into10power5about 6 years ago
I am just curious to see if any colleges live stream their classes? Or any students who tweet what they learnt today.<p>Would be a fun experiment. I do understand that it cuts into their revenue streams, but still want to explore.

UC Berkeley used to for a lot of computer science classes. But a lawsuit necessitated that they close caption all of their publicly available streams. Rather than pay money to get professional closed captions, they made streams private.

I do. At least sometimes. I use Zoom to do so. I sometimes record them as well. We have had a lot of weather cancellations this winter, so I have been doing this quite a bit. But, I am not required to, nor do I do it 100% of the time. FWIW, I teach Software Development at a community college.

Yes. Harvard’s CS50 course livestreams lectures, both in 2D and sometimes in 360 degree format (!)

The university I attended (University of Athens, Greece, department of Informatics) live streamed pretty much every major class, starting from 2005 or so, and for as long as I was there. I&#x27;m pretty sure it&#x27;s not that rare, especially nowadays. But it&#x27;s much less useful now relatively, since there are so many courses and video resources on most STEM related subjects.

Yeah well, many colleges offer the live streams. I recently met on eof my student told me tht their college officials offer the free online video lectures. Thanks for sharing this also do visit <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;tellthebelltacos.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;tellthebelltacos.com</a> for more hacking news.

It&#x27;s not equivalent, but most courses at least post lectur slides, section notes, etc. online.
