RVC Services
RVC services are free for all HKUST UGC-funded classes conducted in RVC venues. For self-financed courses or other usages, fees are available at MTPC Price List;
All faculty/instructors will be email-invited by MTPC to use RVC service at the beginning of Spring/Fall semester. They can simply reply to use the service and teach without any preparation. MTPC will take care the production and logistics of uploading videos;
Faculty/instructors who are not teaching in RVC venue but want to use RVC can contact ARO to change their venue. They should opt for a RVC venue if they wish to use RVC in the next semester;
Courses that release videos to students will be videotaped throughout the whole semester. Courses that DO NOT release videos to students will be videotaped the first three sessions;
For co-teaching courses, a contact person to whom all video URLs will be sent should be assigned;
RVC-video will be post on Canvas by default and the URL will be emailed to faculty/instructor within 3 working days after the lecture;
RVC can also be used in videotaping for guest lectures, workshops, seminars and event, career and recruitment talks. Videos shared through "HKUST Video Channel" can also enjoy a discount;
All RVC videos are viewable in smartphone (iOS/Android), tablets, Mac or PCs. Real time statistics of video-view by students are also available after the semester.
