Abstract
My first Mobile HyFlex lecture was an insightful endeavour with 15 enthusiastic postgrad students on board, engagement was high, and their willingness to participate made for an energising experience. The high-spec hardware kit provided a solid foundation but an unstable Wi-Fi connection led to intermittent signal drops. If there is to be more widespread adoption of video camera over Wi-Fi going forward, the bandwidth requirements of the Wi-Fi network would need to be addressed and validated to ensure it can support multiple lecturers using the technology simultaneously, as this could be a bottleneck. Additionally, the camera, while impressive, seemed more suited to a conference room setting than a lecture room, thereby limiting its effectiveness. Another key consideration was class scheduling. With all classes for these two cohorts still delivered solely face-to-face, integrating HyFlex was challenging. Ideally, a fixed camera at the front of the room with wired ethernet connection could prove to be a more effective HyFlex solution than the mobile camera kit.
