Although modern learning technology is quite robust it is always good to have a backup plan for those times that technology lets us down. Say, for instance, you are giving a lecture to a class and at the same time streaming that lecture to another location. The gremlins arrive on the scene and the streaming is interrupted. This is quite disruptive for the students in the remote location and perhaps would necessitate rescheduling the lecture if the host recording device were to fail? To avoid rescheduling I would advise that at each lecture you bring a portable audio recording device. As soon as you start your lecture press record on the device at the end of the lecture press stop. You now have a recording of the lecture. This can be made available to students after the lecture, as a resource or podcast.
