Use of video medium
Posted by: learningconversations in Teacher tools, e-Learning LiteratureOne interesting aspect of the learning design field is the flexible roles of new media. Various genres of video, for example, offer exciting new opportunities for learning. Teachers may use or adapt existing footage in a range of ways from either commercial hosts such as Discovery Education or free libraries such as the Open Video project. For instance, video-based demos can be used as stimuli in POE designs or in many other ways. Burden and Atkinson (2008) are exploring a framework for using existing video from repositories such as the News galleries. An exciting part of their project is the creation of a community resource of focused and specialist exemplars. Teachers will be able to comment on exemplars and upload their own video in a Youtube-like community.
In terms of learner-produced video tasks, an exciting genre of video production that is enjoying widespread popularity in all levels of education is digital storytelling . For instance, student teachers at UTS recently made some powerful stories Such stories can either be published in user-created web2 outlets such as a class wiki or VoiceThread and/or can be published on existing media communities such as SchoolTube , TeacherTube or the Apple Student Gallery .
