Videos can be a great addition to the classroom but they are not just listening exercises with nice pictures! Visual means of communication are becoming increasingly prevalent as mobile devices give many of us instant access to video-sharing websites and videos on social media. Is it time to re-examine the role of video in the language classroom?
This event is in the past. A recording of the discussion is available in the NILE Member's Area.
Whether you would just like to introduce more video into your classes or you would like to find new and innovative ways to use a resource you are already familiar with, our next NILE Insights Panel Discussion is just for you. This Insights session provides a forum for you to connect with a panel of experts to discuss and examine a variety of aspects of using video in the English language classroom.
Some areas that could be considered:
- Visual literacy and its role in the language classroom
- Viewing as the fifth skill
- The effective use of authentic video
- The pitfalls of using video
- Multi-modal texts
- Supporting our learners in video creation
- Using video when teaching online
- The future of video in the language classroom
NILE Deputy Director, Mike Riley, is joined by three panellists bringing different perspectives on using video in the English language classroom Jade Blue, Elena Deleyto and Kieran Donaghy will be answering the host’s and your questions, and some of their own.
