Smithers is an Australia-based academic whose witty and thought-provoking blog deals with the role of digital technology in pedagogy. His perspective on lecture capture is more balanced than the blunt title might suggest - back in the 1990s, he was one of the first specialists in this technology. Here, he writes constructively and hilariously about the dangers and opportunities digital tech presents us with for learning, and reminds us that active versus passive learning is a concern for lecturers to chew over even as we empower students with the click of a mouse.
