I agree. I would suggest that he further categorise his lecture topics that would fit into 3-5 minute videos. I would think most students would only want to review certain aspects rather than a whole hour of a lecture. The upside of this is that it allows him greater flexibility in chopping and changing his lectures/lecture topics and have smaller videos to edit and deal with. It would be more convinient for students to download key points they want rather than a whole lecture (take up less bandwidth for shorter time). Downside is that he has many little videos to edit and post.
Just suggestions from a recently graduated, frantic note taking and filing uni student.

Joe,

Depends what he wants to do.

However, if he's interested in making stuff for the world to see, like he is just interested in teaching people beyond his class, then I would strongly recommend the five minute compression route Matt suggests below. In fact, I would suggest that the professor think carefully about what is truely interesting and enjoyable in his lectures and work on editing based on the fact that most people expect short videos on the web these days ( e.g., Rocketboom is 3 minutes) ... of course, there are all sorts of cool things the professor could do with editing, but that depends on his purpose, as I said, and his passion for that sort of thing ...

If he's really interested in using video blogging in teaching and would like to contact another professor with a passion for video blogging, whose never really figured out a way to connect it with his profesoring, tell him to email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...

... Richard
