Using Video in the Post-Pandemic Classroom

Creating a class presentation on a specific subject using video capture is becoming an important tool in the classroom. It can supplement instruction, enhance learning, and provide feedback.
According to the Kaltura 2022 State of Video in Education, polling both K-12 and higher education institutions, 97% of education professionals say that video is essential to students' academic experiences. There are several reasons video capture is such an important tool for educators. One reason is that it can help students retain information. For example, if students watch a video about how to do a math problem, they are more likely to remember the solution than read the instructions. Thus, video capture can be used to assess student understanding.
Creating a series of instructional videos to give your students is beneficial, allowing the student to reference or refer to a topic. Anyone who has tried to teach a class will tell you it can be quite challenging. There's so much material to cover, and keeping students engaged is hard when they are not actively participating in the discussion.
One way to combat this issue is using video capture and software to edit and create engaging content. The software allows teachers to record their classes and use the footage as a teaching tool. Not only is this method more engaging for students, but it also allows educators to track student progress and track changes.
Instructional Benefits
Instructional benefits are important for any teacher. They help organize and plan lessons, provide a focus for instruction, and improve student achievement. Additionally, instructional benefits offer teachers a way to measure their own teaching effectiveness and make adjustments when necessary.
Student Engagement
To promote student engagement, educators must understand its definition and benefits. When students are engaged in their learning, they are motivated and interested in what they are doing. This leads to better academic outcomes. There are many ways to engage students, but the activities must apply to their interests. Video is one way to engage students and help them better understand their lessons.
Assessment
One of the most important steps in learning is assessment. Assessment helps teachers and students identify what a student knows and doesn't know. Teachers use assessment to plan their instruction, while students use it to identify their strengths and weaknesses.
There are different assessments, including formal and informal ones. Formal assessments are pencil-and-paper tests that measure a student's knowledge or ability in a specific subject area. Informal assessments include classroom observations and teacher comments on student work. Both formal and informal assessments have benefits, but it is important to use them correctly. Video lesson plans are an excellent way to assess students' strengths and weaknesses. Video capture is an important tool in the classroom. It can supplement lectures, help students learn from mistakes, and create a more interactive learning environment. Video capture also allows educators to assess their students' understanding of the material, which can help them develop better teaching methods.
As video technology develops, teachers must continue developing their skills to manage this new technology in their classrooms. Using the AVer VB130 all-in-one Classroom Camera or the DL30 Classroom Camera to create easy-to-follow instructional videos is important for teachers and students in a post-pandemic world. The ease of use and multiple functions of these cameras are ideal tools for creating informative videos.
