'What would I say to the face of a student?' Why some teachers are giving feedback via video. | Higher Education Teaching and Learning | Scoop.it
A study interviewed university teachers to see how they are using video feedback to humanise their feedback to students. But this kind of feedback can be used for much younger students as well.

A Vision of Students Today

a short video summarizing some of the most important characteristics of students today - how they learn, what they need to learn, their goals, hopes, dreams, what their lives will be like, and what kinds of changes they will experience in their lifetime. Created by Michael Wesch in collaboration with 200 students at Kansas State University.

The power of a wiki! Collaboration. Remember context, this video was made in 2007. Have things changed that much?

How Giving Students Feedback Through Video Instead of Text Can Foster Better Understanding

How Giving Students Feedback Through Video Instead of Text Can Foster Better Understanding | Higher Education Teaching and Learning | Scoop.it
Teachers are experimenting with video feedback as a replacement for traditional written mark-ups. There’s evidence that video grading does more to motivate students than written edits — and it can also save teachers time.

What 6.9 million clicks tell us about how to fix online education

What 6.9 million clicks tell us about how to fix online education | Higher Education Teaching and Learning | Scoop.it

In a paper published this spring, the CSAIL team outlined some key findings on what online learners want from videos. These include:


Brevity (viewers generally tune out after six minutes)


Informality, with professors seated at a desk, not standing behind a podium


Lively visuals rather than static PowerPoint slides


Fast talkers (professors seen as the most engaging spoke at 254 words per minute)


More pauses, so viewers can soak in complex diagrams


Web-friendly lessons (existing videos broken into shorter chunks are less effective than ones crafted for online audiences)

Analysis from MIT about the features of online videos used in MOOCs that online learners prefer. Interesting analysis for MOOCs but these features could be applied to videos used in any implementation of blended learning.

 

Also shows that the slick, production theatre videos with a highly professional look may not be the ones that students prefer to watch.

What’s the most influential technology in education right now? Or, more to the point, what’s been the bedrock of education since, say, March 2020
Rosie Stedman's curator insight, June 13, 2021 6:06 AM
This article titles how both introspection and having an understanding of where the world is moving- especially in terms of technological advancements, is quintessential to achieving success in the classroom. It is interesting to note that by having a predisposed understanding of digital pedagogies it enables adaptability in extenuating circumstances- such as the pandemic.
