• Resumen

  • This paper describes a breakthrough in the use of video technology in higher education, which empowers teachers to produce resource‐based learning materials which can be used flexibly, for example by extending the accessibility to part‐time and distance students of core material, such as lectures given to full‐time students. VESOL, Video autoEditing System for Open Learning, is shown to have a wide range of applications and modifications which build on the normal presentation skills of lecturers, so empowering them to create independent learning materials using a technology which for playback is ubiquitous in higher education, but which has previously had a technocratic aura around the production of dedicated programmes. Some of the educational issues surrounding the use of video and the videoing of lectures are also examined.
