Video 6 - Theory and Copyright
I was on the tech struggle train this week - I'm not in my home so getting video that had clear audio was difficult. Also, my laptop fan decided it was going to make SO MUCH NOISE any time I ask it to anything that makes the CPU think. Good news though, I did learn how to record audio with my phone and ironed out that process. I had previously been recording voiceovers directly to Camtasia so I learned a new skill/pathway of production using my phone and voice recording app.
What learning theory did you use for this video?
I decided to take a somewhat cognitivist approach, loosely following Gagne's 9 Events of learning - though that wasn't what I initially set out to do. I really wanted to take a stab at a different type of learning theory, but it's incredibly difficult to do so with video! As part of a larger course, I may have approached this differently. I really wanted to push myself to see if I could complete a connectivisim-driven lesson, but it was just totally beyond what I had time for/scope of the video.
Describe how you fulfilled each of the requirements of that learning theory
Gagne's 9 Events
Gain the attention of the students. - Asking students to think back to a time they interacted with fire is a fun way that I've found to get students to connect to what you're teaching them. It also helps frame the lesson.
Inform students of the objectives. - I state early on that I am going to show you my way of building fire - but this objective did lack any metrics or any drive beyond that.
Stimulate recall of prior learning. - In the attention-grabbing intro, I feel I also meet this goal.
Present the content. - Done directly in the video (somewhat)
I feel the following events are beyond the scope of this project- but we've had ample practice doing these in other courses.
Provide learning guidance.
Elicit performance
Provide feedback.
Assess performance
If you used 3rd-party materials (audio, images, video) or had people appear in the video, where did you get that material and how did you legally protect yourself?
I usually use music from Benmusic.com - and I make sure to give credit on the slide where the music is playing. This is within the use agreement outlined on the site.
