Screencasting & AnimationScreencasting & Animation

You can use Video to support learners to think out and present workplace processes and work flows using video.

When you create your our own videos as a group with learners as opposed to viewing 'others films', it enhances interactions and personalizes within the groups.


• Videos are good for illustration purposes.

• They are supported by text and interactions.

• 20 second video can replace a full page of text when trying to explain a detailed process


• Use to highlight, freeze-frame or slow-motion an event/process

• Using video to depict real scenario can make whole situation so much more engaging


• Scaffolding activities using video ensures active learning – quizzes, decision making trees, scenarios, case studies and demonstrations can be enhanced by integrating video into the decision making and problem solving resources and examples available to the learner.


• Promote identification with job roles, contexts and workplace processes

• Can be story driven (narrative)

• Support a range of learner preferences (visual, reflective learners)

About Sound

• .wav - a format developed by Windows and used extensively on Windows operating systems

• .mp3 - audio format that compressed sound with minimal loss of quality

• (i.e. audio file size is a lot smaller as an .mp3 compared to a .wav). This is the most popular sound format for music.

Using Sound in Training

• record face to face sessions or summaries of sessions• self-paced learning • guest speakers from remote locations• subject experts or industry figures• assessment tool • third party content• walking tours for induction/instruction• case studies/scenarios• vocabulary and Quizzes• page readers in elearning resources

Inputs & Outputs

• Inputs – Mics/Lines• Outputs - Speakers• Troubleshooting• Control Panel• Windows Mixers• Pre Amps & Mics

Making good sound

• Record at a good level• Use a good mic• Choose a quiet room• Add music and FX
