Video podcast
The following is a video which I have uploaded from YouTube about maths with explores a range of different aspects of maths. This could be a great way in introduce maths to younger students as an exciting subject, instead of a mundane one.
Befits of Video podcasts:
•Different way of experiencing subjects, can provide a great ‘hook’ for a lesson.
•Older students can create their own video podcast as an assessment piece to bring down and show the younger classes, using eLearning and ICT tools.
•Younger students can work collaboratively as a whole call to created a podcast, this could be model off one which they have previously viewed. For example: A class could look at podcasts from around the world about children’s culture and community and then create their own video Podcast to be uploaded to a class or school wiki.
•Used as a teaching tool to support learners with things such as alphabet and letter recognition or number recognition.
Hi Jess,
ReplyDeleteYour post about video clips is fantastic. I strongly agree that a video clip can be a good 'hook' for a lesson. Students become engaged when they can visually 'see' the topic that they are learning about, which in turn, helps them to become better learners.
Also, I agree when you say that the older students could create their own podcast, what an interesting assignment for them! There are so many possibilities when it comes to technology, and it is clear that you are engaged by technology as well! Well done, keep up the blogging!
Thanks,
Brid
