We all know that video is an incredibly effective learning method. Learners can remember up to six times more from trainings and classes that incorporate videos than they do from those that don’t. Many trainers, however, are not sure how to most effectively use videos; simply showing clips is not the best method. In fact, it’s a missed opportunity!

In this session, you will learn five major approaches to engaging learners with video. Most importantly, these are new approaches, as opposed to simply finding and using video clips in new ways. You will see how these are applicable to both corporate training workshops and academic classrooms. Finally you will learn real, easy-to-apply solutions that you can begin using right away. They are simple to learn, but make a big impact in your training.

In this session, you will learn:

  • How to develop a plan to effectively incorporate videos into your training
  • Best practices in using videos in trainings and the classroom
  • About resources to continue learning about videos in training and development
  • About a new paradigm of videos in training and development

Audience:
Novice to advanced, designers, project managers, managers, and directors.

Technology discussed in this session:
Mobile apps, MP4 videos, instructional design software (including Captivate and Camtasia), learning management software.
