Videos are all around us. On sites such as YouTube and Vimeo, and more and more on Twitter and Facebook. Whereas once a upon a time, you needed this thing called a “video/camcorder” to record video, today you can record high quality videos using your cell phone or even “recording” your mouse-clicks on your computer. Kittens videos aside, the number of “how to do [insert computer process here] videos” on YouTube is overwhelming, and valuable.
During the 2017 Learning Solutions conference sponsored by the eLearning Guild, one of the most interesting sessions was delivered by Hans de Graaf, an eLearning and Video expert. Although the handouts from his talk “What Makes a Learning Video Effective?” are not (yet) available, posted below are the handouts from an earlier talk at the FocusOn Learning 2016 Conference & Expo titled “Making Video Brain-friendly”.
Please review the handout and the various links to gain additional information. Listed here are, in my opinion, some of the key learning nuggets from this talk.
- Visuals are powerful. When watching, listening to, and reading information from a video, the visual information will dominate what your brain processes. To see how visuals will override audio, take a look at the McGurk effect. Ba, ba, ba. Var, var, var.
- Multi-media learning. Avoid brain-overload by reducing the amount of text; visuals and brief audio is more ideal than visuals with a lot of repetitive text. Here is a short summary of Richard E. M. Mayer’s multi-media learning theory where several multi-media learning concepts are explained.
- Learning Video Tips.
- Get to the point, quick, by providing WIIFM (What’s in it for me) at the start.
- Keep your videos as short as possible. As short as they need to be, but no longer. 2 to 3 minutes is “ideal” but it varies based in various factors.
- One video, one topic.
- Only include needed information, and avoid unneeded distractions. Movement and animations are great WHEN they support the learning content, but the days of a bouncing or rotating graphic adding “entertainment” value to the learner are long gone.
- Engage the brain via stories, video-based interactions, and questions (including reflective questions).
- Repetition, and even better spaced repetition, will improve learning retention. The concept can be extended to all learning, not just video learning.
In some future posts, we will look at some of the new interactive video tools that are becoming more widespread. Organizations like H5 Organization (open source) and vendors such as Hi Ha Ho and Spotful are making this technology available, affordable, effective, and engaging.
Bonjour,merci pour cette info! Je suis aussi intéressée de savoir ce qu’on peut faire de plus en Europe avec le 3G+. Pouvez-vous m’indiquer combien de frais de douane avez-vous payé pour le recevoir? Je compte le faire envoyer en France.Merci!
The honesty of your posting shines through
o isento, pra variar, produziu um pérola da bestialidade jornalistica insinuando que Gilmar Mendes – o que sofreu chantagem – eh praticamente culpado por ter sofrido a…chantagem!!de quebra ainda veio com aquela conversa mole de que Lula "acha" que pode tudo…não acha, ele tem certeza, porra!!o sujeito esta subvertendo a Republica sem o menos constrangimento, fora todas as patifarias que cometeu quando presidente…
No more s***. All posts of this quality from now on

Yeah, that’s the ticket, sir or ma’am
Thanks for your thoughts. It’s helped me a lot.
You notice that it's usually older people that are conservatives. Ever wonder why? Could they possibly have learned a thing or two from their life experiences. You want the military cut? Defense is job one of our government, sonny!
That’s going to make things a lot easier from here on out.

Hi there would you mind letting me know which web host you’re utilizing? I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different web browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot quicker then most. Can you suggest a good hosting provider at a honest price? Thanks a lot, I appreciate it!
Medicare has low administrative costs and its cost is growing like mushrooms nevertheless. Regarding healthy lifestyles – you can’t institute them by an administrative fiat, it only works in North Korea. Besides, while the healthy-living person on average will live longer than an obese and chain-smoking drunkard, I am not sure that the total birth-to-death medical expense will be much different. You save on social security payments, too…
This spectacular woman reminds me of another very stylish woman from California (Lubi) that you have featured. I love simple but dramatic styles accentuated with bold and unique jewelry and accessories.
A poke in the eye with a sharp stick, eh? I’m glad it didn’t slow you down too much.I’m working my way through my pile of books. It’s too hot to do anything else. Not sure how many I’m going to get through by the end of the break.
Great start to posting here! Love the title of your book! This is my only Mormon experience: When I was 16, I got thrown out of the Mormon Tabernacle for wearing a tank top when I was there on a teen tour. While I was cooling my heels waiting for the rest of my group, I lay down on a concrete bench and pulled my tank top up so I could get some sun on my belly. Yeah – I was pretty much yelled at by everyone that passed by. It tickled me no end.
I’m impressed! You’ve managed the almost impossible.
I’m impressed by your writing. Are you a professional or just very knowledgeable?
girrrl, I feel ya. I have not had any bloggy mo-jo since I got back from Germany, and even when I was there I was slacking. it will come back to us 🙂 and, giveaway?!? I mean really, that's not the point of blogging. you shouldn't have to pay to have readers- at least, that's my opinion. I like the suggestion above- blog design or ad space! I would LOVE either :)Hope this week will be a little fuller. we all have down weeks. thankfully, they usually don't last forever 🙂
I don’t think loose seats would be your biggest worry in the event of a crash but things like that can certainly make you nervous. What if the engines have been maintained in the same manner?? ; ) Seriously, you are probably as safe as you are in a car these days. Try to relax.
Yummy eats…esp the pesto!I made ! They were AWESOME. I made 2 minor changes to the recipe, but the base one is great!And has been a BIG hit with my friends!:) Diana
A pleasingly rational answer. Good to hear from you.
I was given the insurance rate I was quoted. The rate actually went down on my car because my car kept getting older and I didn’t get into accidents!
A few years ago I’d have to pay someone for this information.
There is a critical shortage of informative articles like this.
Janet, mi pequeña bestia amorosa también tiene 16 meses…y como dices “ahora nada más no quiere dormir” y además sabe cuando voy por ella que sale corriendo a esconderse….Yo por más que la quiera cuando se levanta a las 7 de la mañana a gritar “maaamiiii” quisiera colgar el tÃtulo y decirle “soy desmadres , mami está durmiendo” jejeje un besote desmadroso
You are so awesome for helping me solve this mystery.
The ability to think like that is always a joy to behold
I was seriously at DefCon 5 until I saw this post.
Tunga besked. Så skönt att du har så bra stöd från sjukvården. Skönt också att de inte anser, att du är färdigbehandlad. De verkar fortfarande ha en plan om att försöka förbättra dina värden. De har inte gett upp!!! Styrkekramar skickas i massor. Lotta

Oklahoma City Thunder proviene del equipo Seattle Super Sonics, en el 2008 cambió de lugar y nombre la franquicia.Y hablando de Seattle, hoy en vez de ir con el “grunje” voy con los amigos que se visten de negro y tocan rapidito (?)Saludos THRASHnocheros!
I like this site very much.This is really a great web.And it is not like other money oriented web, the information here is truly important.I am definitely bookmarking it as well as sharing it with my friends.
Liebe Manu,leider war der Trubel die letzten zwei Wochen zu groß um viel online zu sein. Jetzt geht es mal in die Weihnachtspause und im neuen Jahr komme ich dann hoffentlich mit neuer Frische wieder Ich wünsche Dir ein besinnliches und friedliches Weihnachtsfest im Kreise Deiner Familie und vor allem einen guten Start ins Jahr 2012.LG Simone
to get your boys to follow her in the first place…would it not? you can’t just do that out of a gut feeling..you tryna get your boy arrested for stalking a chick? lol
SuntangoYour problem is that you are part of the problem. Don't address the real issue. Tie the issue up in red tape.No one should have to file a law suit to get this eligibility issue looked into. Many have done the discovery that would have been unnessasary, if Obama did not seal all his documents.The senate should have, and still should, demand that he release ALL of his documents.No one that is clean would spend over $200 MILLION to keep the documents from being released.
Thanks for taking time for sharing this article, it was excellent and very informative. as a first time visitor to your blog I am very impressed. I found a lot of informative stuff in your article. Keep it up. Thank you.
I love that image too! I was looking at your stitching and thinking that I don't have a sewing machine and then read that it is faux! wow! very good!Hugs,Chriss

undoubtedly similar to your internet site always, you will have to analyze this punctuation in the number of your web website subject theme. The majority of them are likely to be loaded apart from punctuational concerns outside then again still think it’s truly problematic for that matter nonetheless I will positively gain yet again.
ConÂgratÂuÂlaÂtions, your hard work to recover from Google changÂing their rankÂing methÂods must be workÂing. I know your rankÂing fell after they changes and your trafÂfic fell to almost zero. Again conÂgratÂuÂlaÂtions and I hope you keep growÂing. I know nothÂing about webÂsite design or rankÂing or I’d try to help.
Bianca, these are absolutely divine! All of your hard work has definitely paid off. The outcome is absolutely magic!I love them all — they are perfect for Spring Racing season. Well done!xo, Lisa.
n’est pas faute d’avoir essayé. Je suis allé errer pendant un bon trente minutes sur et même pas un communiqué sur le sujet… Beaucoup de «Flash» d’ailleurs; pas étonnant que le référencement soit si inefficace
You’ve managed a first class post
I really wish there were more articles like this on the web.
BiBiJon says: December 9, 2012 at 6:17 “…your “logic†of surrender”.Insults aside bibijon (how’s life in US of Ace, btw?), how on earth did u jump to such a ‘surrender’ conclusion? I didn’t think supporting the idea of a winning strategy was akin to surrender?
There is a critical shortage of inotamrfive articles like this.
