Video in class

Continuing the observation on the high tech infrastructure available at WBS, it is impressive to see how video has crept into the structure of the classes administered here. We have seen videos in the obvious case of Market Analysis (or simply marketing, if you wish), but also in Practice of Management (PoM) and Operations Management (Ops). It has been used during the induction week and I am probably forgetting some of the other times video was used.
In any event, it is there. We have seen advertisements, we saw how lettuce is harvested by Polish undergraduates in Cambridge, we saw the result of the PoM project of a group from last year (with 2 Mannheimers, yeah!).
This is, of course, only possible because the lecture room is very well equipped with computer, audio and video systems.



And this is taken for granted in such a measure that we wouldn't be able to imagine class without a simple powerpoint presentation. Well, it wasn't too common where I come from.
