Development of a Video Streaming Module for Moodle

Abstract

We have developed a video streaming module for Moodle. This module adds three functions into Moodle. The one is an uploading function for recorded video files to Moodle. The second is a video format converting function. This function can convert from 14 major video formats to Flash format, automatically. The third is a video playing function. This module works as an activity module in Moodle. We have recorded lectures of a subject through one semester. We have provided recorded videos as a material for lecture reviewing of students via Moodle. Results of a questionnaire show the videos are good materials for review.
