A quick storyIn 2000 I saw screen capture technology for the first time.Allows you to record the screen of your computer.I thought this can be used for feedback.But it took me 6 years to find out how to do it.

https://www.teachertrainingvideos.comExampleScreen capture allows us to record the screen of our computer.Potential to be used in many different ways.My original idea was around feedbackExamplesVideo 1-Feedback on a students textVideo 2-Feedback on longer essayVideo 3-General feedbackVideo 4-Mini grammarVideo 5-Feedback on a blog

Impacting on Qualityhttps://www.teachertrainingvideos.comStudents like the voice.Students feel it is more personal.More information is conveyed.Feedback can be elaborated on.Feedback can be very timely.Like having the teacher sitting next to you.Multimodal Student learning styles.Motivating/authentic listening material.Special needs students.Stylistic benefits.

Using the tools in other waysRecord lessons ( record a PowerPoint for example)Record yourself talking over a document, an image, a marking scheme etc.ExamplesLectures/LessonsTalking about the marking schemeExam Tips

We began to realise we could re-organise our approach to some of our courses

https://www.teachertrainingvideos.comWhat is it?It is not a methodology.It is more about the way that we organise our learning content.It fits very well with the Higher Education lecture mode.It attempts to bring the coursework elements into the classroom ( where the teacher can help) and move the teaching or input out of the lesson.It requires a lot of initial work as a lot of material needs to be digitized. It also requires the teacher to create interesting learning tasks/coursework for the actual class time.At the heart is a clear distinction between the types of learning taking place ( see next page).Part of it is about putting more responsibility on the part of the learner ( autonomy).

Bishop/VerlegerWe define the flipped classroom as an educational technique that consists of two parts: interactive group learning activities inside the classroom, and direct computer-based individual instruction outside the classroom. ChallengesInitial work.Learning culture of the students.What to do with students that dont do the initial work at home.How do you deal with the different pace of learning?Producing the group based, task based activities that take place in the lesson.What do students do with the videos?

My flipIn 2004 I took over the MSc in Multimedia and Education.Numbers dropping. Computer Science in decline.Began an experiment where I moved a lot of the traditional. teaching stuff out of the class.Reduced lecture time to 1 hour a week.Increased tutorial time.Class time was not group based activities but focused on the course work ( traditional idea of Flipped Classroom).Added the learning content on www.multimediatrainingvideos.com

All on-lineAdd content onto the internet for free.Anyone could access the videos.Generated a lot of interest in the course.Many inquiries on the back of using the videos.Students who applied could also go to the videos to get an idea about the course.Numbers increased at a time when the department closed all but two M level course.In the final survey 15 students out of 27 students said that th website had been a major factor/or the key factor that made them decide to join the course.The toolsPaid toolsTechsmith CamtasiaSnagItFree toolsScreen-cast-o maticmyBrainSharkPresent.MeJINGSnagITSimply mark the area you want to record.It record anything that is on your screen.Recordings can be saved on your computer or immediately shared on YouTube.
