several explorations in 2006-2009 introduction online learning (e.g. Arbaugh, 2008) blended learning (e.g. Buchanan et al., 2010) e-learning (e.g. Garrison & Anderson, 2003) web lectures (e.g. Gorissen, 2003; 2011) several explorations in 2006-2009 resulting in structural incorporation of web lectures web lectures / courses preferred by students no decline physical attendance used mainly for exam preparations increased study success rates learning is taking place and time independently

The Hague University of Applied Sciences 25.000+ students 4 buildings in 3 cities (The Hague, Delft and Zoetermeer) 43 Bachelor programmes (of which 9 in English) 21 part-time and 10 dual Bachelor programmes 7 Master, 28 post-bachelor en 3 A.D. programmes Research programme, 2012-2013 exploring the broad and structural adoption of web lectures resulting in structural incorporation of web lectures University Development Plan, 2009-2013 Vision Memorandum Education and ICT, 2010 Long term plan ICT in Education, 2012

smart and sufficient usage of new media and e-learning method main question: smart and sufficient usage of new media and e-learning resulting in increasing study success 300 recorded lectures (270 at the Academy of Public Management, Law & Safety) 40 different lecturers 5 Academies watched over 6000 hours by students + New media and e-learning Survey EGPA delegates and participants 2012

technical part exploration recording Mediasite of Sonic Foundry Video infrastructure Mediamission E-learning Cali Author ------------ Distribution & dissemination Blackboard, e-mail etc. standard fully equipped recording location with technical supporting staff Reasons why can be read in the paper

less time explaining theory results 1/2 Students better understanding course material exam preparation purposes repetition of the course material catching up a missed lecture used on different places (home, in transition, University) less time explaining theory more time deepening course material and professional applicability better success rate at the first exam Reasons why can be read in the paper

awareness on quality of recorded (course) material results 2/2 Lecturers technical simplicity of recording and disseminating necessity of preparing a script risk of web lecturers replacing other learning material awareness on quality of recorded (course) material better quality questions and reflection more time for interaction improved didactic education improved internal coordination between courses and academies through digital content Reasons why can be read in the paper

encountered challenges e-learning should be facilitated structurally and centrally lecturers should use scripts full potential unclear teaching methods expansion and integration no technical problems no decreased physical attendance Reasons why can be read in the paper

next necessary steps developing more knowledge and experiences with best practices pragmatic model to a sustainable central e-learning system attractive blended learning needs to be pursued establishing, constructing and managing collections of re-usable digital knowledge is determinant

consequences digitalising educational material quality of current offered material growth of knowledge modules re-usage of material coordination available material diversity of lectures and knowledge modules of better quality collections of digital knowledge new networked work forms Reasons why can be read in the paper
