Vodcasting in Education2.0

by Inge de Waard

Education 2.0 is going social and multimedia across the globe

Every teacher and eLearning provider faces tough decisions while

exploring Education2.0

Unclear demands limit the expansion of Education2.0

won’t the students put strange material on

it?

How can we make sure the content is relevant?

As a teacher I do not have the time to

invest in new technologies

How much does it cost?

The technical demands are too high for our

learners.

If I keep quiet, this new rave will blow

over

Can I use my mobile device?

How do we measure the outcomes?

Education2.0 strengthens the knowledge & literacy of all learners

co design and co deploy

While implementing vodcasting Education2.0 boundaries will expand

With broadcasting the world becomes your possible audience

Let’s look at:

advantages pitfalls

can you name some?

Advantages of vodcasting

Reusability

How to overcome pitfalls?

• keep the movies short for easy updating • use standards (h264 codec, cross platform compression…)• be expressive throughout the production: voice, look dynamic, address the learners• use disclaimers and copyright licenses• deliver for all settings (cd-rom, online, mobile…)• give clear guidelines to learners on peer-2-peer commenting

Education2.0 is participation that will stand the test of time
