Leading Analyst Firm Highlights Sonic Foundry as Sample Vendor in Hype Cycle for Education Adoption of lecture capture on the rise according to Leading Industry Analyst Firm's largest Hype Cycle
Adoption of lecture capture on the rise according to Leading Industry Analyst Firm's largest Hype Cycle
November 06, 2009 --
DENVER, Nov. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- (EDUCAUSE booth #443) - Sonic Foundry, Inc. (Nasdaq: SOFO), the recognized market leader for rich media webcasting and knowledge management, today announced that Gartner, the world's leading information technology research and advisory company, has included Sonic Foundry as a sample vendor for lecture capture and retrieval tools in the Gartner Hype Cycle for Education.
The Hype Cycle 2009 analyzes the maturity of up to 1,650 technologies and developments currently present in various fields. According to the report, lecture capture and retrieval tools are emerging technologies that are expected to be adopted into the mainstream within two to five years.
"Lecture capture and retrieval tools have tentatively shown to have some effect on student grades and retention, and they promise to be important pedagogical tools," said Jan-Martin Lowendahl, Gartner research analyst in the report. "The ability to index lectures and the ability to offer playback of selected passages have proven key to these positive results.

"Throughout the past several years classroom technology has evolved from a consideration to a necessity, allowing unique educational moments to be translated into online learning sessions. Lecture capture is no longer a niche tool; it has a mainstream application with broad appeal," said Sean Brown, vice president of education for Sonic Foundry. "As the evolution of platforms advances, consumers can expect to see more seamless integration in order to facilitate teaching needs while catering to students' expectations," added Brown.
"Sonic Foundry has been recognized by several analyst firms as the global leader in market share, but we believe to have Gartner analyze the growth of this market is verification of the role lecture capture will play in the modern college classroom," said Rimas Buinevicius, chairman and CEO of Sonic Foundry.

Trusted by educational institutions worldwide, the patented Mediasite webcasting and content management system automates the capture, management, delivery and search of multimedia presentations that combine audio, video and accompanying graphics for live or on-demand viewing.
