      Dr Ashley, I agree with you and posting a question at the beginning of the video is an excellent strategy. That is how I learn. I need to know the question upfront so that I know what to pay attention to in the video.
  • Embed short graded or self-assessments either in the video itself, or at the end of each video. Including one or two multiple-choice questions or requests to post to a forum—either between scenes (using a post-production editing tool such as Camtasia or Captivate) or after the video—alerts students to the “take homes” they should be getting from the material. It also helps teachers assess, at point of contact, whether students understand the major concepts.

      This (self assessment) is absolutely necessary to give learning a chance to happen, as we develop open learning courses. This applies to Google Sites training resources out there.
