Video Resources on contracts

Why use videos in the classroom?

"As educators, our goal of course, is to get students energized and engaged in hands-on learning experiences, and video is clearly an instructional medium that generates excitement. Using sight and sound, video is the perfect medium for students who are auditory or visual learners. Video taps into emotions which stimulate and enthrall students, and it provides an innovative and effective means for educators to address the curricular concepts.

We all know from experience that the more engaged your students are, the more interactive your lesson is, the more your students will enjoy, learn from and retain information from your lessons. It may surprise you to think of video as a means for interactive instruction, but video is a very flexible medium. The ability to stop, start and rewind it can be invaluable. You can stop the video and challenge your students to predict the outcome of a demonstration, or elaborate on, or debate about, a point of historical reference. You can rewind a particular portion of a show to add your own review or view a segment in slow motion to ensure that your students understand a key concept. Furthermore, you can ensure interactivity by replicating activities, workshops, demonstrations and experiments in your classroom environment."
