Through the Learning Glass – Studio Tour
A taxonomy of course videos produced by UAF CTL
Video can be an important part of a rich online course, particularly for increasing instructor presence and delivering domain knowledge. It’s also something that students now expect to see in a sophisticated course. In this session, we will discuss recommended video types and become familiar with CTL’s professional media production capabilities. We will then proceed to the Media Production Studio to shoot your own Learning Glass video to use in your course. We will also have a chance to shoot greenscreen video for those interested.
Homework:
- Watch the video Learning Glass Tips for Use.
- Plan a three minute Learning Glass video to shoot in the studio. You may want to sketch out a basic outline, draw a map of the board, or simply just come prepared to briefly present on a topic you know well.
- Consider reviewing the CTL page on Crafting Video for Instruction and Feedback.
