Abstract
This study uses questionnaire results, internet analytic data and semi-structured interviews to examine the use of three types of rich-media teaching resources – lecture podcasts, key-concept videos, and tutorial solution videos - by engineering undergraduates. It finds that students value all three types of resource, especially for revision and as a supplement to lectures. Students find short focussed resources more useful than longer ones. Non-native English speakers and those with disabilities derive particular benefits from the resources. The effect of rich-media resources on lecture attendance is found to be small, and two-way.
