abstract |
Information and Communication Technology offers powerful Web 2.0 tools that can benefit
learners with different learning preferences. The rise of video streaming, the increased
proliferation of ‘on demand’ televisual media and new smartphone streaming opportunities
have generated a range of web-based media that may usefully support teachers and learners
in accommodating these varied learning styles. At the same time, media streaming technologies
such as YouTube have distinct drawbacks for students, teachers and their institutions,
particularly in relation to appropriate content and the ethical issues around the
uploading of student materials to a public repository.
Two studies are reported. In Study 1, two case studies of how teachers engaged students
with a media-streaming system called Box of Broadcasts (BoB) are discussed using principles
of design-based research. The result from the first case study indicated that BoB
provided an improved efficiency for teachers who filmed students’ presentations in
a second language. The second case study illustrated how the integration of BoB into
their classroom teaching led a psychology teacher to think differently about students
and the design and delivery of teaching and learning resources. In Study 2, the use
of a qualitative semi-structured interview approach with eight teachers indicated
that staff felt that BoB was beneficial in supporting pedagogic practice. Furthermore,
staff highlighted the opportunities for dialogue about theory, reality and practice
that video materials offered to students as added value. Key limitations for some
staff in their use of BoB as a support for video-enriched pedagogic practice were
the restricted level of available content on BoB, some difficulties relating to the
skills required for creating and using clips and technical stability when using clips. |
