Lightboard Studio
"Using the lightboard to create instructional video tutorials was a GAMECHANGER for the Tutoring Center! We have gotten tremendous positive feedback about how these videos are helping Baylor students get the help they need with a click of a button. Both Tutors and professors have been elated that they have more time to help with more complex concepts in their office hours or with tutor staff in drop in center. The students are thrilled to have more vehicles to get help they need! We are so fortunate to have a media lab which makes video creation so easy! - Melanie Moore Briscoe, Program Manager for Tutoring in Academic Support Programs
