The document discusses using video in training and provides guidance on video formats, production, and delivery. It notes that video can illustrate concepts, demonstrate processes, and engage learners through visualization. Recommendations are made to storyboard videos, use editing software, and choose file formats based on intended delivery method and viewer capabilities. Overall, the document outlines best practices for integrating instructional video into online and blended learning environments.

1. The force was strong today I want this week be over Ready for dinner On a roll today I’ve seen better days Use the text tool to record your current mood state

3. Preparing for your trial Send out your welcome email and any instructions for work to be completed prior to your Elluminate session (we will send out email details of you all tonight – remember to cc us in! Email us names of anyone you want to add to the trial of your Moodle material Make a time with us if you have not so far (see Doodle link)

4. Strangers are coming!

5. After your trial Send us your completed peer review sheet for the Elluminate session Send us the results of your survey (PDF) Complete a short report on your trail

6. Final Report Progress with learners Unexpected issues, difficulties in the online environment Alterations, adaptations or enhancements Re-evaluation and adaption of delivery plan Any additional support or help you require to enhance the delivery to your learners Insights and examples of learner feedback Implications of your experience with this delivery trial for e learning at your organisation Any other issues of relevance

8. About Video Video files by trainers can provide a wide range of applications in the training environment and augment existing content delivery strategies. Video files can be downloaded and played by learners from their computer, television sets, on portable mp3 players and mobile phones. videos are highly transferable i.e. you can embed them on web sites/LMS/blogs/wikis for your students to view or embed them in PowerPoint

9. Video in Training Good for demonstrations and illustrating concepts, ideas and examples. They can be supported by text, captions, diagrams, still images, descriptions, interviews and interactions.

10. Video in Training You can use Video to support learners to think out and present workplace processes and work flows using video. When you create your our own videos as a group with learners as opposed to viewing 'others films', it enhances interactions and personalizes within the groups.

11. Video in Training Videos are good for illustration purposes. They are supported by text and interactions. 20 second video can replace a full page of text when trying to explain a detailed process Use to highlight, freeze-frame or slow-motion an event/process Using video to depict real scenario can make whole situation so much more engaging http://designing.flexiblelearning.net.au/gallery/activities/videosharing.htm

12. Video in Training Promote identification with job roles, contexts and workplace processes Can be story driven (narrative) Support a range of learner preferences (visual, reflective learners)

13. Video in Training Scaffolding activities using video ensures active learning – quizzes, decision making trees, scenarios, case studies and demonstrations can be enhanced by integrating video into the decision making and problem solving resources and examples available to the learner.

14. Hardware Video cameras are becoming cheap and ubiquitous. Standard Definition High Definition http://www.theflip.com.au/

15. Sequenced still images A series of still images that clearly illustrate a task can be very effective. Photos can be assembled in PhotoStory along with music and text and exported as a video http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/photostory/default.mspx

16. Video Formats The AVI Format The Windows Media Format The MPEG Format The MOV Format The RealVideo Format The Shockwave (Flash) Format The Flash Video Format The Mobile Video Format 3gp

17. Video Formats How will we deliver to our learners? CD/DVD Intranet/Internet – LMS/Blog/Wiki etc Will the viewer need a plug in on their browser to watch the video? These decisions influence the codec we will use to export the final video

18. Video files, which, uncompressed, are HUGE Codec's can take a very large video file that can’t be downloaded and make it into a file that can be “streamed” online MOV Flash Video (FLV) h.264 AVI http://www.zamzar.com/
