What is it about?
The paper reports a systematic review with the following objectives: (1) To identify the contexts that lecture capture research has explored in higher education, (2) To recognise the methods that lecture capture research in higher education has employed, and (3) To analyse the overarching research streams in the current body of the lecture capture literature in higher education.

Why is it important?
The insights that the review offers will enable educators to better understand how students use lecture capture. Instructors will have a richer understanding of how lecture capture is helpful on some fronts, and counter-productive on others.
Perspectives
I was excited by this project because it gave me the opportunity to marry my research interest in human-technology interaction with my passion for teaching. In the article, I conclude that while the issues raised by lecture capture are complex, the benefits of the technology outweigh its drawbacks. That said, I invite future research to challenge my argument. If the article manages to stir a healthy debate among the scholarly community regarding the use of lecture capture in universities, it would have served its purpose.
