3 Tips for Creating Online Lectures

1 – Keep your lectures to no longer than 20 minutes at a time, preferably shorter.

That doesn’t mean you have to cover all your material in 20 minutes, is just means you should break it up into more than one lecture. The attention span of an average adult is approximately 20 minutes.

2-Use the first part of the lecture to capture attention:

You may want to include goals, overview of what the lecture will cover and why its relevant.

3-Host you lectures in the cloud.

This can easily be done by uploading your videos to a solution like vimeo (www.vimeo.com). You can then stream these lectures directly in your learning management system (like Learnpower, shameless plug!) This will allow your lectures to be viewed across all devices like phones and tablets without downloading additional software.
