The video provided a 3 sentence summary of economics supply concepts. Over half of survey respondents found the video visually effective and informative. Feedback indicated the introduction was strong visually but the body could be more engaging. Most felt the video portrayed a good range of ICT skills but could include more animations. The discussion of supply factors was seen as most beneficial though some wanted more examples. The video was unlikely to impact subject choice for most as options were already set.

3. ARE YOU PLANNING ON TAKING ECONOMICS
NEXT YEAR?
Sales As you can see, the
majority of the
clients I am
testing on are
planning on
Yes taking Economics
No
next year.
Because of
Maybe
this, their
feedback will be
incredibly
important, as they
are the targeted
audience.
4. DO YOU THINK THIS VIDEO WAS INFORMATIVE?
8 out of 12 people said this video was informative. I think this is a
reasonably good, considering the fact that quite a few of them
already take Economics, and already understand Supply of
Sales Economics.
Conclusion: Overall, my clients did find it informative, one of my main
goals in creating this video. However, there were one or two clients
that were not satisfied with the information given, as they already
knew all the basics because of how they take Economics as a
subject already. This becomes complicated, as it is extremely
difficult to bring in new information to experienced students, while
not overcomplicating things for students that have never sat in a
class of Economics before. However, the students that I had
interviewed who already currently take Economics was useful as
they gave me an indication whether I matched and covered the
syllabus of Edexcel Economics sufficiently.
Sample of External feedback:
Yes Tanya: I think you should explain more on the graph section of Supply, I
got confused a bit there.
No Nicolle: I am not going to take Economics next year, but I did learn a lot
about Supply!
Suman: This covered more on Supply than what I learnt in Business, so I
think it was helpful.
Jamie: I already take Economics, so I already know the things you talked
about in the video. You covered Supply well and the syllabus as
well..
Anonymous: I think it was easy to understand. you explained it well with
simple language.
Anonymous: I think this will be good for people that don’t take
Economics, but I didn’t really learn much because I already take
Economics and know the things you mentioned in the video.
5. DO YOU THINK THIS VIDEO WAS VISUALLY
EFFECTIVE?
More than half of the clients said the video is visually
Sales effective, or to an extent.
Conclusion: Based on the feedback, I think I need to work
and develop my video to become more interesting and
entertaining. I understood that my introduction was a
strong point in terms of visual effectiveness.
Sample of External Feedback:
Yes Julia: I really liked the introduction bit, and I like how the
pictures went with the audio
Tanya: It was good, but it became a tiny bit boring because
all you did after the introduction was just talk.
No Nicolle: I think it was good, the cloning was really cool!
Anonymous: I think you could improve it more? But there
were lot’s of different kinds of shots so it was pretty
To an visually entertaining.
Extent Anonymous: I think it could’ve been better, like add more
pictures. I think there’s too much of you talking in front
of the camera.
Anonymous: After the introduction, the video became a bit
boring and repetitive! It might discourage audience
from watching, and it’s hard to learn if it’s not
stimulating! I thin you need to wok more on making it
more entertaining and visual.
6. RATE THE QUALITY OF SHOTS IN GENERAL(1
WORST – 5 BEST):
The feedback for the quality of shots in general
Number of People were generally good.
Conclusion: Overall, the feedback on the shots
6 were positive. The main criticism was the
slight shakiness I had in two of the camera I
used.

Additional Comments:
4 Simran: I think they were good! Some shots were
a bit shakey but otherwise really good!
3 Number Sharmaine: They were good and you had like
of different kinds of shots so it looked more
professional.
2 People Jamie: I liked how you used a tripod, but for the
other camera you should've used it as well!
1 Anonymous: It could be better, some were not
proportioned, for example in one shot, you
0 were too much to the left.
Anonymous: Sometimes the shots changed too
1 2 3 4 5 much in such a period of time, it can look a
bit messy and confusing but overall I think it
was good! One of the cameras is really
stable.
7. DO YOU THINK THIS VIDEO PORTRAYS A GOOD
RANGE OF ICT TECHNICAL SKILLS?
A satisfying majority of people said that the video displayed good
Sales ICT Technical Skills.
Conclusion: I think I did well in terms of incorporating ICT technical
skills into my video. There were some suggestions that I needed
more in the body of the video, after the introduction.
Sample of External Feedback:
Katherine: I think your ICT skills in the video were really good. The
cloning was impressive!
Kelly: I think you could have added more to be honest, there were a
few good ones but you need more!
Yes Simran: I’m also doing a video, and I know how hard it is to sync the
audio and the video together. You also had like lots of different
No camera angles which I didn’t do, that looks hard and good!
Zahra:I think you did pretty good especially when you don’t do
filming studies! I guess you could add more animations and
stuff.
Sharmaine: I think it did. Especially the introduction, that was very
technical.
Clare: It was good, but to get a high level I think you need to add
more. Maybe animations or like video clips or something? I was
good though!
Anonymous: I think you should’ve added more, there were a few very
good ones, but I think you need to add more virtual animations!
That will make the video more interesting and better.
8. WHICH SHOT DO YOU THINK WAS THE MOST
EFFECTIVE?
Shot 1 was a middle, frontal shot.
Sales Shot 2 was a low angled shot.
Shot 3 was a high side shot.
*I showed them each shot before asking this question
Conclusion: I have learnt that using a tripod for shot 1 was
effective, as it garnered good feedback. The most popular
shot was in fact shot 3, mostly because of how it was from
an interesting angle, and that it had the best colour. I
understood that, despite having a tripod, shot 1 was the
Shot 1 least popular, mostly because of the inferior colour it had
compared to the other shots. Perhaps I could have used a
colour enhancer on the videos that had the ‘dull’ feel.
Shot 2 Julia: I liked the shot where it was done from the side? It was
good! The colour was the best there too.
Shot 3
Yee Jeung: The Shot where it was in front of you, it was really
stable! Your other two videos was a bit shakey, but not
that much.
Jamie: I liked all because they were all different! But if I had to
choose, it would be shot 2 because it had a different
perspective than the other videos.
Clare: One of the shots were not that stable, I think it was the
third one. I think you should have used a tripod for that.
Anonymous: I think Shot 2 and 3 were better, because the
quality and colour was better. The first shot was okay, it
looked a bit dull.
9. RATE THE QUALITY OF EDITING (1 BEST - 5
WORST):
Conclusion: The ratings of the quality of editing
Number of People performed better than the ratings of the
shots. The multi-camera synchronization
and the different shots that were
6 incorporated in the video may have been a
strong factor of this.
5 Additional Comments
Zahra: I liked how you edited in a lot of different
kind of shots with one audio! It gave it a
4 clean finish.
Julia: I think the editing was good, especially the
3 Number introduction!
of Katherine: I thought it was pretty good.
2 People
Sometime the cameras changed a bit too
much but other than that it was good.
Nicolle: The part where you changed the photos
1 in sync with the music at the introduction
was really good! The rest of your video had
good editing too.
0
Anonymous: I think you could’ve improved more
on editing the video as good as you did with
1 2 3 4 5 the cloning. Maybe you could have done a
split screen when you started drawing the
board?
10. NAME TWO AREAS OF THE VIDEO THAT YOU
THOUGHT WAS THE MOST BENEFICIAL AND
INFORMATIVE TO YOU. According to the results factors that influence supply was the
most informative and useful part of the video. This topic
No. of People was the main body of the video, and is the topic where I
spent the most time explaining.
6 Yee Jeung: The factors of supply you were mentioning were very
informative! Maybe give an example with each factor? But
maybe that would have been too long.
5 Along with the factors, I did spend a lot of time discussing, and
explaining the nature of the graph, and what each factors
changed in the Supply line.
4 Zahra: The graph bit of the video was good, it was a bit confusing
though. The drawing of the graph really helped too!
3 Katherine: I learnt the most about the graph, as I already knew
most of the other topics you covered.
The characteristics of a market, such as the equilibrium, did
2 reasonably well in terms of the usefulness to the audience.
Tanya: I think the part where you talked about the equilibrium was
simple, but informative.
1 Yee Jeung: You explained the characteristics of the market
well, but I think it could have had more explanation to it!
0 No. of People The connection between supply and demand, and how they can
affect each other garnered the least amount of votes. The
reason to this might be because I had spent the least time
on it.
11. WILL THIS AFFECT YOUR DECISION IN TAKING
ECONOMICS AS AN OPTION NEXT YEAR?
Conclusion: The majority of
Number of People students said that the video
would not affect their options
in choosing Economics as an
IB subject next year. Only
one person, Tanya, said that
it would affect her
decision, however, she was
already thinking of taking
Economics instead of
Yes Geography.
No Also, because of how the
options for next year were
already set and done, most
of the students who took part
in this test were sure of what
they were taking, whether it
was Economics or not, and
this video did not change
their views on it.
12. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS AND INFORMATION
Sharmaine: I think you should have removed the pin thing behind
you on the wall, or choose another background. It was quite
distracting and out of place.
Yee Jeung: You should include more pictures and graphs when
you are talking!
Kelly: More animations during the tutorial and lecture bit!
Katherine: Engage the audience more, like maybe ask more
questions and have interviews. Also put some jokes in to make
it funny
Nicolle: I liked the example at the end, you should have more of
those in the video.
Suman: I wanted to know more about Demand, or the price
elasticity because that’s what I’m struggling at, my Economics
topic in Business!
