Sorry for my absence last week- BUT WHAT A WEEK!! Dave and I had an action packed few days full of workshops for parents, staff and students that have given me a lot to think about!
This week, for the Blog RoundUp I wanted to think about Educational Videos- videos exploring education today, especially when thinking about the impact of technology and the possibilities of e learning
Videos are an extremely effective tool to get people thinking or talking about their ideas and views on a range of topics and can gather the attention of your audience to set the tone for your session.
This stemmed from a great post by Richard Byrne on Free Technology for Teacherstalking about his YouTube playlist. This has received a number of comments suggesting other videos that could be added to the list and I believe this is a great collection for use with staff and students to provoke discussion.
One of the ones that left me thinking about my own educational experiences was the video below, though this is set in a University, I believe it is incredibly relevant especially in light of concerns that have been expressed across the Cluster about the traditional approach still being utilized commonly in Higher Education.
I would be really interested in any other videos that you can recommend that could be used across the cluster. Place your comments below!
Until Wednesday
