Beyond Videos: 4 Ways Instructional Designers Can Craft Immersive Educational Media | E... - 1 views

  • Harvard reportedly spends $75,000-$150,000 building each new MOOC, most of which goes towards video production costs.
  • resourceful teachers and nonprofits like Khan Academy are still creating low-budget screencasts.
  • et, until we get the learning design right, these questions about production values are premature
  • ...22 more annotations...
  • makes little sense to convert your narrated PowerPoint into a 360 video if you’re still not sure whether students walk away having learned from the content.
  • This is where instructional designers come in
  • ven if an instructional designer can get an expert to explain a concept clearly, this sometimes has little effect on student understanding
  • students bring their own prior knowledge and misconceptions to educational media
  • ideo presents concepts in a clear, well-illustrated way, students believe they are learning, but they do not engage with the media on a deep enough level to realize that what has been presented differs from their own prior knowledge,
  • ou need a little friction in your educational media to actually modify the viewer’s understanding of the world and get the new understanding to stick
  • talk through the steps that people will need to take to apply their learning or complete an assignment
  • Relate” videos get the student to feel connected to the instructor. They seek to establish instructor presence. They also prompt students to reflect on their own prior experiences with the topic and reasons for taking the course.
  • arrate” videos share stories, anecdotes, or case studies that illustrate a concept or put the learning in context. They tap into the power of narrative to make learning sticky.
  • Demonstrate” videos illustrate how to do something in a step-by-step way.
  • “Debate” videos are perhaps the most important if you want students to actually change the way they think. These videos explicitly surface and address the misconceptions that students have about a domain and showcase competing points of view.
  • that social belonging interventions can be the key to helping students persis
  • coaching your experts to unfold their narratives in ways that will be riveting to an audience
  • A study by Columbia University School of Continuing Education found that videos in an online course that get the highest number of views have a direct connection to the course assignments
  • videos turn out best if I help the expert do four things: relate, narrate, demonstrate, and debate
  • focus on the places where people tend to make mistakes
  • gaps between novice understanding and expert knowledge
  • As the instructional designer, you should also be looking for controversies that might have surfaced about the expert’s work
  • minefields of misconceptions and asking the instructor to unpack them can yield rich pedagogical footage
  • o film a “debate” video, you can also invite someone else into the shoot—such as a colleague or a student—and have them discuss a topic with the instructor or receive feedback on a piece of work
  • alternative viewpoints or ways of doing things, you trigger higher cognitive load for viewers, but also prompt deeper engagement
  • tudents who watched a video dialogue involving alternative conceptions reported investing greater mental effort and achieved higher posttest scores than students who received a standard lecture-style presentation

    Instructors have frequently found that some content, such as mathematical formulae, chemistry laboratory experiments, and business practices, are unusually difficult for students to comprehend through text-centered approaches, and that this is especially so for online students. In response, instructor-made videos (IMVs) of three to 10 minutes in length on problematic topics or subject matter areas were produced for business, chemistry, and mathematics courses. The IMVs were intended to scaffold student learning. Initial findings revealed that multimodal IMVs involving the demonstration, illustration, and presentation of key terms, knowledge, skills, and resources can help students understand important procedures, structures, or mechanisms in previously problematic content. Simply stated, IMVs can have a positive impact on student learning.

Virtual reality: could it revolutionise higher education? | THE News - 0 views

  • Conrad Tucker, an assistant professor of engineering at Pennsylvania State University, has received funding to build a virtual engineering lab where students hold, rotate and fit together virtual parts as they would with their real hands
  • One question his project aims to answer is whether students learn as well in VR as they do in real classrooms, or whether without being physically present with their classmates, they miss out on developing intangible skills such as teamwork
  • The same year saw the University of British Columbia experiment with a full lecture in VR. Five students were given an earlier version of the Oculus Rift headset and sat in a virtual classroom where they watched a gaming lawyer deliver a lecture
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • with headsets covering their entire field of view, the students were unable to take notes in the real world.
