4. VIDEOS IN THE CLASSROOM
Questions to Ask Before Turning to Videos
Indiana University Center for Innovative Teaching &
Learning
What do you hope students will learn?
How you will help the students learn?
How you will know whether they have done so?
Then start planning.
5. VIDEOS IN THE CLASSROOM
Plan using three phases:
Phase 1: Provide questions (prompts) that focus your
students on what you believe is important in the video.
Consider why you are having them watch the video, and
what you hope they will learn from watching it. You can list
the prompts on the board or on a worksheet that you hand
out in class or post online before class. You can have
students write down their answers or submit them using
electronic resources (see below for ideas).
Phase 2: Watch the video as a class. Don’t be afraid to stop
the video to point out something important if you think it will
be useful to the students. Model the engagement with the
video that you desire from your students.
Phase 3: Debrief as a class or in small groups about the
students’ answers to the prompts you gave them. Make sure
that they have achieved your goals for having them watch
the video.

10. A FEW DRAWBACKS
Editing videos after posting as a class assignment
is difficult
Copyright & content concerns
Sharing video commentary with individual
students is challenging
Unclear how students receive feedback after
quizzes
Teacher-made videos are not private – but
student-made videos as part of a designed
lesson are
