Digital laboratory experiences: creating videos for undergraduate engineering practical sessions

This paper will go over the method used to record and present practical sessions to students studying undergraduate engineering as ’digital laboratory experiences’. The aim of the practical sessions was to give students exposure to simple electrical engineering concepts to supplement their project based learning in a two credit point unit. Outlined are the goals the practical sessions, the process of capturing footage and editing a video file for the students; and finally a discussion on student attendance to in person practical sessions once the videos were made available. After this, future work to be completed is discussed, mentioning possible improvements that could be made.
