Why You Should Use Video In Education - 1 views

Kerry Gallagher on 22 Mar 14This is an interesting infographic. Perhaps this is why the flipped model has gotten some traction. The truth is that because of the internet and social media we get a lot of our information and communication done via video. Heck, my own kids haven't ever really talked on the phone. They only video chat with our relatives using FaceTime. Like all other teaching tools, though, video needs to be varied with other methods and it requires a great teacher for the information to have the right impact on the kids. Summary: When I was a student, 'using video in education' mostly meant showing a movie in class. Which to me, as a student, was clearly much better than the alternative of a lecture. With so much interactive multimedia technology available to today's students, 'video in education' means way more than it used to.
