Studies have shown that multimedia content delivery positively increases student performance.
Some examples:
1. Medical Students: Better performance in operating room and less study time required (Friedl, 2006)
2. A test of different video lecture types showed positive impacts on student learning across all types of video lectures (Chen & Wu, 2015)
3. Students typicall remember images more efficently then what they read or hear (Shorter & Dean, 1994)

“ Considering individual learning styles is more important that instructing all learners with one style”

Part of their learning process, not the whole process
Can and will watch and rewatch to understand – less need to repeat yourself
Limited attention span – some say 5-10 minutes, others say 20-30 minutes. Just be intentional.
![Page 11: Video Lectures: How To and Best Practices](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55ae1bce1a28ab677e8b4699/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Don’t reinvent the wheel: Look to see if someone else has already made the video and given permission to share
1. Be concise
2. Be organized
3. Split long topics into shorter segments
4. Make a plan
![Page 12: Video Lectures: How To and Best Practices](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55ae1bce1a28ab677e8b4699/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
1. Outline a lecture capture video and use cue cards
2. Write a scrip for voiceover presentations
3. Use printed notes to accompany an on-screen presentation
4. Start with an overview, goals, and/or objectives
Remember: Your lecture is not the WHOLE lesson.
It should be accompanied by readings, other multimedia, activities, assignments, projects, etc.

1. What type of recording best suites your content and the resources available?
2. What equipment do you need? Do you need help using it?
3. How will you display the multimedia resources to your students?
4. Will you be editing? Do you want help editing?
![Page 14: Video Lectures: How To and Best Practices](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55ae1bce1a28ab677e8b4699/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Your recorded lecture will be shorter than you in-class lecture. This is okay (and probably a good thing).
Seek to delivery the needed content to meet learning objectives
![Page 15: Video Lectures: How To and Best Practices](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55ae1bce1a28ab677e8b4699/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Students will have to work harder to understand the material if the media quality is low. This takes away from the attention they should be giving to the presentation.
Doesn’t need to be professional quality, but needs to not distract form the content.
Media center resources
Ask for help with choosing equipment to purchase
Test your recording and presentation process before starting to produce large chunks of content.

Use a conversational tone
Test audio and video before recording long sessions
Review recordings frequently
Don’t be afraid to start over, or to backup and re-record a section.
Don’t deviate from the script
![Page 17: Video Lectures: How To and Best Practices](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55ae1bce1a28ab677e8b4699/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
1. Review ALL recordings for quality
2. If possible, have someone else review for clarity
3. Perform any editing
4. Produce or upload in the format you will share
Test everything.

Offering information that is equivalent to media content is the law
…but equivalent is complicated, and you are not alone in this responsibility.
Best practices:
Provide written outlines and scripts along with the videos if you used them.
If feasible, have video transcript produced. Work with URSA on this.
If feasible, use Youtube/Vimeo/Panopto captions feature.
