Empowering Learning Flexibility

How a global university drove student satisfaction with increased flexibility and engagement.

Copenhagen Business School is one of the largest business schools in Europe and one of the eight Danish universities. Established in 1917, CBS employs 1,500 members of staff and offers undergraduate and postgraduate study programs to over 20,000 students.

With Panopto, CBS addressed challenges facilitating learning and supporting remote students at their institution. The platform provided lecture recordings for catch-up study, enhancing absentee and asynchronous learning. Adoption increased annually, with a rise in recorded courses and notable student engagement, evident from viewing and engagement data.

A survey conducted by CBS explored student preference for lecture capture. Results showed students valued recordings for pacing control, knowledge consolidation, exam review, and catching up on missed classes. Flexibility was a top student criterion, which meant students wanted to manage non-academic priorities, access content remotely, and learn at their own speed.

After Panopto, students appreciated the flexibility and learning support of remote recording. The survey emphasized students’ disappointment when modules lacked recorded content, highlighting lecture capture’s significance in personalizing education.

CHALLENGES

• Lacked of resources and recorded content for absentee and remote students

• Consolidating and sharing live lectures

• Enhancing the learning experience for students to complement face-to-face sessions

ACHIEVEMENTS

• Students report satisfaction with the flexibility of Panopto’s asynchronous video solution

• 77,500 viewing minutes in a single course

• Lecture capture mitigated problems with student scheduling conflicts

• Powered remote and asynchronous learning delivery

All lectures should be recorded. It’s a really big help when you study for the exam.”
