Video Tools

Video means an electric medium for the recording, copying and broadcasting of moving visual images. There are different kinds of tools which can be used for making video. For instance, Goanimate is one of the best tools for making a video.

These tools can be used to make a video for educational purposes. Students can be  given tasks like making a video. When they are dealing with the problems which can come up during the process of making video, they are improving their problem solving skills, as well. When these tools are integrated into education, engagement, motivation and participation of the students increase.

As an example case scenario: Miss Yazıcı is an English language teacher. She wants to use video tools to make her English course more enjoyable and make her students to participate in the lesson. She is teaching the difference between type 1 and type 2 if condition. When the course is over, she gives information about the video tools to her students and wants them to sign up in Goanimate. The students are expected to prepare a video about this week’s topic. When they complete their video, they present their own video. Thanks to this activity, her students enjoy and comprehend the difference between type 1 and type 2 if condition.
