Finding the Right Tool: Video-enchanced Instruction as Inquiry, Experimentation, and
Reflection
SPEAKER
M. Aaron Bond, Ph.D.
Senior Director, Networked Learning Initiatives and Faculty Digital Fluency
Virginia Tech
Finding the right tool to enhance your instruction is an important part of any instructional design process. Incorporating video into your course design may help improve student learning and retention. Teaching is a scientific process that starts with a hypothesis. In order to determine the effectiveness of a given instructional tool, it is important to "test" its usefulness. Approaching learning and teaching as an experiment can provide evidence that instructional interventions are achieving the desired results. If interventions are unsuccessful, thoughtful reflection can lead to better instructional practices. In this session we explore how video can enhance instruction and how incorporating a data informed approach can ensure the right tool is being employed.
