How it started

In 2007 I created www.teachertrainingvideos.comusing Techsmith Camtasia videos.

Step by step help videos for teachers.

Generated enormous interest. Invites to talks, workshops and conferences.

Realised it was a marketing opportunity.

Could I do the same at the

University of Westminster?

Numbers had dropped to 12 on the MSc Course.

Needed to get more exposure/publicity for the

course

Had created some support videos Decided to release them on the internet with the

domain name www.multimediatrainingvideos.com

Shared the videos widely on Twitter and through

the students at the university Increased interest in the course. Numbers

increased to 15 and then 17 in 2 years.

Then won JISC fundingwww.teachertrainingvideos.com

Funding

Expansion of videos.

Shared on Vimeo/YouTube.

Blog ( short lived).

Twitter. Worked hard on Search Engine Optimisation

Large numbers of visitors. Up to 1000 users a

day.

Realised we had opportunity to flip our classestoo with so much content available.



8/23

Flipped Experiment

Reduced lecture time to one hour

Increased tutorial time to 3 hours

Students were directed to the training videos



9/23

Lectures

Shift in focus

Showing more examples

Focused more on design/layout/navigation

Much less on the technical aspects Students watched the videos in their own time



10/23

Tutorials

Created tutorials for the increased tutorial periods

Task based with specific tasks to be done in each

session

Tutorials built towards the course workA lot of initial work

Problems with some tutors ( worth discussion)

Very popular with students.

Could focus more on weaker students

Not enough appreciation from the top



11/23

Marketing

12,15,17,27

When ALL M level courses were dropping in

(25 in fact)

-15 applicants said that the videos had an

important/very important impact on their decision towww.teachertrainingvideos.com

myBrainShark

Similar to Present.Me

Not the option of adding webcam

Upload Word, PP, PDF, Pictures, Video, just

podcast

Good compression

Great for short lectures, presentations in the

flipped class mode but also great for students

Broadening the flipped class

debate Visited USA in 2010 as the flipped class idea was

taking off

Met various teachers working on the flipped class

model including Aaron Sams

Discussion around

-How do we make sure the students watch the videos?

-What else do they do but watch videos?

-Who produces all the tutorials?

-Do the teachers need special training?

-What other elements can we add?

-How does it relate to autonomous learning,

independent learning, critical thinking, higher thinkingskills etc?www.teachertrainingvideos.com

My contribution

In 2006, my idea on using screen capture forfeedback had resulted in enormous publicity in

the Higher Education sector and various prizes.

Use screen capture to provide feedback to our

students.

Suggested that this idea fits well with the flipped

classroom model.

Impacting on Quality


Students 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.

MultimodalStudent learning styles.

Motivating/authentic listening material

Special needs students

Stylistic benefits


20/23

Conclusions

Flipped classroom is really just a another model of blendedlearning.

Like ALL blended learning it begins to shape what is donein class and what is done out of class.

Tightly related to the development inindependent/autonomous learning.

Linked to thoughts around creative thinking etc

Needs a lot of buy-in to succeed and spread.

Provided 3 key tools that can be used in a whole range of

scenarios including the flipped classroom.It is the components around the Flipped Classroom that willmake it a success.

Interesting from the marketing perspective.
