19. Some Teaching Strategies to Consider
During student presentations, mute the sound and have students write their own narrations for video segments.
Create lessons and projects in which students are always actively involved in the viewing process and follow-up activities.
Play segments with sound but without video display; encourage students to listen for details and unique sounds before they write.
Even with short segments, stop to discuss specific frames in the video or use the still images for writing prompts.
Be sure to pose questions or prepare thought-provoking “lesson starters” before viewing to actively engage students.
Try creating individualized projects that students can access on “learning centers” in the classroom or computer labs.
