The Course
• Every college and university has a similar course
• At UWG: Undergraduate Education Course:– Media and Instructional Technology (MEDT)
2401 - Introduction to Instructional Technology
– Applications course – use of productivity tools in an educational setting.
– Two F2F sessions – Two Online Classes
All courses (both F2F & Online) are identical in WebCT.

• Short arrows, question marks, circles
![Page 10: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Video Feedback
• A screencast– A digital recording of computer screen output, often
containing audio narration. – Camtasia
• supports compact file formats• has editing features that allow mouse movement and
audio.
• A screencast is essentially a movie of what a user sees on his monitor.
![Page 11: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Screencasting
• Screencasts have been useful for software developers to show off their work.
• It is a useful skill for ordinary software users as well:– or to show others how a given task is accomplished
in a specific software environment.
• Screencasts are excellent tools for learning how to use computers.

2. Use Graphire Pen to circle, draw arrows.
3. Film the project corrections and record audio.
Example:
Correcting a formula in Excel.

Course Projects
• Microsoft Projects– Word – 3– Publisher – 2 – Excel – 3– Access – 3 – PowerPoint – 2
• Other– Web Pages – 1 (3 pages)
– Web Resources – 2– Search Engines – 1– Lesson Plan – 1– Project “Tests” - 3
Total: 21 student projects
21 x 80 = 1680 projects to grade!
4 sections = approx. 20 students each
The course is about learning to use the computer.
![Page 22: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Current Project
• Posting feedback videos to a central place for
student access.
![Page 23: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Future Plans
• Using video to record PowerPoint presentations.
• Requiring students to use Camtasia in the online lesson plan.

Balancing Act
![Page 26: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Other Options / Other Uses
• Just-in-time support/training
• Across disciplines
• Other Considerations– Freebies– Issues
![Page 27: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Just-in-Time Support/Training
• Past UWG research shows faculty learn how to teach online
– on their own,
– “in the halls”,
– or just-in-time, instead of thru traditional means (workshops, etc)
• How can we take better adv of our limited time with them?
![Page 28: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Just-in-Time Support/Training
• SnagIT (still images – some text)
![Page 29: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Just-in-Time Support/Training
Informal survey of 20 recipients who received both plain text & SnagIT images
- 14 felt it enhanced understanding
- 3 “would not have understood without the accompanying image”
- 3 felt it did not have an impact one way or another / but 2 said preferred anyway
![Page 30: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Just-in-Time Support/Training
Future Direction:
• Camtasia (AV screencasts):
Beyond demos – show ‘em our problem-solving in action
Beyond mini-tutorials – active learning help (they click the hotspots necessary to continue the action & get the answer)
![Page 31: A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words! Providing Audio Visual Feedback in an Online Course Darlene Jones-Owens & Janet Gubbins University of West Georgia](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649de95503460f94ae3bc5/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Just-in-Time Support/Training
• More effectively conveys directions (faster, better, re-usable)
• From support helpcall to teaching moment!
