Why make videos for teaching and learning?

There are many possible reasons for trying this teaching technique. Here are just a few we've encountered already during the project.

Opportunities for students

• You need to truly understand an issue in order to explain it through storytelling
• Opportunities for collaborative learning
• Acquiring a wide variety of new skills beyond the topic covered, such as project management, teamwork and networking
• Additional experience to put on their CV when applying for higher or further education
   
  

For teachers

• Provides opportunities for students to be very creative
  
• Modern equipment and software now makes the whole process much quicker and easier than you might think
• Very engaging for students
  
• Your students get to try something "cool"
