Food for thought

• Students who watch video lectures have higher scores. Dedicated students make more use of video lectures? Or video lectures help to achieve higher grades?

• AttendanceStudents might attend class less often. They might not. And if they do, is this a bad thing? Some lecturers prefer to give class to dedicated students and have the disruptive ones stay home.

• ProcrastinationOffering video lectures only shortly before exams could reinforce procrastination.

• Lazy or SupportiveOffering video lectures at all could make the average student lazier, or help them while cramming for exams.

Educational Technology Evolution

Initially keep doing what we always did:• Lectures – video lectures• Chalk boards – smart boards• Text books – ebooks / internet

Slowly evolve…

Next Stage Video Lectures

• Reference material or scheduling issues– Provide specific segments as preparatory material

in the following year, freeing up ‘class time’• Incidental backup– Extra material when study programes change

• Reuse guest speakers– Build up content to be used over time

Other options

• Deficiencies • Honours programmes• Interdisciplinary

What do live lectures offer?For the teacher• You offer inspiration• You can contextualize and create bridges between educational material

offered• You can explain concepts in more depth• ?

For the student• Create a bond with the study and educational institute by being on location• Interaction with fellow students• Interaction with the educational institute• Being able to ask the teacher questions• ?

Freeing up class time: Flipped Classroom

What could that look like?

• How would giving a class change?• What ‘extra’ interaction could we undertake?• What are feasible options when you have a

classroom with 200 students? • Effects on time invested by a teacher?• More interactivity in classes could mean more

effective teaching hours and therefore, time gained? These are all questions that still need answering.
