A question for you...

Most of all….what do we remember from a

learning experience?

They may forget what you said, but

they will never forget how you

made them feel

@MuireannOK

People, relationships, networks:

Learning is a social experience

Face-to-face teaching/

online learning

@MuireannOK

My greatest fear!

Hello,

Is there anybody in there?

Just nod if you can hear me.

Is there anyone at home?

Lyrics- Pink Floyd, Comfortably numb

@MuireannOK

There is an emotional intensity attached to the experience of learning that is often

overlooked.

• Isolation and anxiety can trigger disengagement

• Emotion is central to student engagement

• Enabling positive interaction important

(Kahu et al, 2015)

Research: Video for Learning

• Videos are better than just reading the material

because it has more of that human element

(Hibbert 2014)

• Prefer videos to academic text (Chan, 2010),

• Videos and audio clips are also excellent ways

to engage the affective domain (Vinson 2013)

85% positive feedback

@MuireannOK

They had a bigger

impact than purely

reading a passage of

text or instructions.

@MuireannOK

They help to create a sense that

as learners, we were not alone.

I plan to incorporate these into

my own teaching, when possible.

@MuireannOK

I found these increased

interaction.

More face to face interaction

would have been difficult

geographically, videos were a

good gap bridge

@MuireannOK

Criticisms

• Reusable videos?

• Should they be reusable?

• Disposable learning objects!

@MuireannOK

The path ahead…..

Student generated video

Future question: Can student generated

video enhance the social and affective

dimension of online learning?
