Screen capture of MS PowerPoint presentations using MS Expression or CamStudio produced good results, but produces a single voice track that is difficult to edit. Encoding video capture files can take a long time for some file formats. Adding narration and animation to PowerPoint and converting them to Adobe Flash format requires the least amount of development time. Editing the slide stack is easier than editing the audio and video files produced by other means.

In high enrollment courses that have both lecture and laboratory components, studentratings of the lead faculty instructor may have two components: student attitudes about thecourse based on perceptions of the lead faculty person, and student attitudes about the coursebased on perceptions about the student’s teaching assistant (TA). It could be conjectured thatthese two sources of attitudes about the course merge in the perception of a student, and that animportant factor in the rating a student gives to a faculty person is the rating the student gives tohis TA or vice versa. Certainly, anecdotal evidence is available that if a student is unhappy witha TA, the same student may be unhappy with the course in general, and with the
