Videos
Video files include visuals and audio pieces. Videos can be accessible through iTunes or YouTube, however, videos can be easily searched up through using Google. A new form of podcasts are called vodcasts. Vodcasts are simply a combination of podcasts and videos. Vodcasts are rather popular on YouTube. Teachers can find educational vodcasts on YouTube and iTunes.
Students can create their own vodcasts and videos using various types of video software programs such as Final Cut Studio, iMovie, or Window’s Movie Maker Live. Students can make their own videos and vodcasts as projects and final assessments on a specific unit that they are learning within the classroom. The creation of videos and vodcasts can be incredibly engaging and motivating for students, and by publishing or burning a video this can increase a lesson’s LoTi from a four up to a level five.
However, teachers and students must keep in mind about copyright laws. Videos and audio files should only include a small clip of audio as this will most likely not cause any copyright laws to be broken.
Video-audio files can be, aslo, imported onto a computer using a phone, camera, or a webcam. Files will be formatted in various types of formats such as Audio Video Interleave (AVI), Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG), or QuickTime movie (MOV).
