This document discusses using video resources to engage students in high-level thinking. It provides examples of video analysis exercises where students make predictions, observe a video clip, and evaluate their hypotheses. These exercises aim to stimulate inquiry, problem solving, and evidence-based reasoning. The document also references frameworks for selecting educational video content and designing learner engagement activities with digital artifacts and video.

5. ANALYSIS
Watch this short newsreel clip without
sound. Consider the following
questions
1.Where is this taking place?
2.When might it have occurred?
3.Who is involved?
4.What is happening?
6.
7. ANALYSIS:
Now watch the same clip with the sound: does the sound help you to
answer any of the questions?
8. ANALYSIS
Select 10 frames from the video clip to support one of the
following hypotheses:
1.The Communists were responsible for causing the riot
2.The Fascists were responsible for causing the riot
3.The police and the authorities were responsible for
causing the riot
4. There is insufficient evidence to make a clear decision
about who caused the riot
10. PREDICT, OBSERVE & EVALUATE (POE)
(hypothesis testing)
Predict how you would demolish this
block of flats without causing serious
damage to the surrounding buildings
11. PREDICT, OBSERVE & EVALUATE (POE)
(hypothesis testing)
Predict which of these six
proto-type helicopters
would actually fly.
12. INQUIRY AND PROBLEM SOLVING
What is happening here and how could we find out more about it?

Editor's Notes
Set this out with single words/terms like a Web 2.0 woordle
Concentrate on inappropriate’ instructional methods’
Lack of clear instructional objectives – but this does not mean the objetive have to be explicitly shared with the students in advance (see starter-plenary activities)
No use of pause, review, rewind facilities – encourages passive viewing
Use as a management tool – to combine large groups when a teacher is absent
Teacher mentally disengages during viewing (does something else)
Used as a ‘reward’
Use only as an attentional ‘hook’ – failure to go beyond this
Used to control student behaviour
Video is generally used as a ‘content transmission’ vehicle – not designed for this
Students are generally passive observors during the use of video
Higher order skills and thinking are rarely targeted vy educators when they use video: e.g. using video to analyse a situation or process; using video to encourage critical reflection; using video to visualise a scenario or situation and problem solving; etc
This session will share some texamples of how video might be used to achieve these things based on a project we completed recently for the JISC (avoid details of project or framework at this stage – aim to engage audience)
This is to show the 10 frame exercise for analysis:
