A couple years ago, I created a research-based series for educators on how to write, produce, and assess instructional videos as effectively as possible. The entire series continues to aid educators and is available on the Carleton College ITS website. That page also includes my Instructional Video Tips Sheet, a Course trailer Guide and Template, and Guided Questions my Perfect Instructional Video Series! Here’s what the series covers:
- Production Quality*
- Duration*
- Illustrating with Sound
- Signaling Strategies
- Active Learning with a Passive Medium
- The Personalization Principle*
- Assess, Don’t Assume
* indicates my favorites!
