What is a WebLecture?

A WebLecture is a copy of a lecture or seminar (or anything similar) which has been recorded and converted into a format which allows it to be stored on a computer's hard disc or a cd-rom. It can then be watched using a standard web browser over the web or from a computer's cd-rom drive.

What do I see and hear when I watch a WebLecture?

You will hear the voice of the speaker and see images of the corresponding slides (see above). The slides are usually shown as static images but it is also possible to display video clips.
