| + | ==== Preliminary considerations for the creation of instructional videos ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | With regard to the use of videos in courses, two different approaches can be fundamentally distinguished. On the one hand, I can create videos as a teacher to support my teaching and to design learning processes. On the other hand, the creation of videos can be used as a didactic method in which learners create videos themselves. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If I want to create teaching videos myself, I first think about the following points (based on the didactic analysis according to [(Klafki1962>> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | **Aim of the video**\\ | ||
| + | The first question to ask is what content or topics should the video cover? What is the goal of the video? Is it to sensitize the learners to a certain topic? Should it help to solve a certain problem? Is it intended to teach certain activities/ | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Timeliness**\\ | ||
| + | Care should be taken to present content in videos that does not become outdated after a short period of time, i.e. that retains its validity over as long a period of time as possible. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Direct applicability**\\ | ||
| + | In addition, content that can be directly implemented by learners is suitable, e.g. tutorial videos that explain a certain software, illustrate certain work steps or solve concrete problems. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Present meaning/ | ||
| + | In this context, it is advisable to have a certain relevance for everyday life and a certain relevance for the future of the learners, i.e. to focus on content or problems that are relevant for the learners now and in the future. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Simplicity of presentation**\\ | ||
| + | Keep in mind for which target group the video should be intended and make sure that the content is presented in a simple, structured way. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **How do effort and benefit compare? | ||
| + | Creating videos involves a certain amount of effort. At this point, it should be considered which content can be presented easily and quickly. The more effort is put into the video, the more care should be taken that the video also has a high benefit. Videos that can be used for a long time, i.e. that do not quickly lose their topicality and can also be used by other teachers or institutions, | ||
| + | |||
| + | **How do I structure the video?**\\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Information condensed to essential aspects, | ||
| + | * Clear and understandable communication, | ||
| + | * Emotionalization, | ||
| + | * Potential for identification, | ||
| + | * Involvement, | ||
| + | * Stories are better remembered than abstract information | ||
| + | |||
| + | Many explainer videos, especially for a younger audience, try to convey content through a story. People can usually remember stories and people better than abstract content. The focus is on a main character. This main character offers identification potential for the target group. At the beginning of the video, the person is introduced and his or her problem is explained. A short description of the problem in exemplary situations: How does the problem manifest itself, what is annoying, what uncertainty arises, what decision is pending? Then a specific content or topic is explained, which enables the main person to solve the problem. It is important to show why the solution is good, how does it work? Where and when else can the solution be applied? At the end follows a reaction or emotion of the main person and a short summary or a core message. This core message is the central message of the story. | ||

| + | ==== Approach to the creation of educational videos ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | - inform | ||
| + | - planning | ||
| + | * Writing text | ||
| + | * Create script | ||
| + | * Selecting form of presentation and working method | ||
| + | - prepare | ||
| + | - create and assemble recordings | ||
| + | - look at result in peace and evaluate | ||
| + | - make necessary improvements | ||
| + | - publish | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Informing: | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Writing text:** Next, I write a text. This text contains everything I want to say later in the video. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Create script:** After that I create a script from the text, this script consists of a table with two columns. In the left column I put the text passages, in the right column I write down what I want to see in the video for each text passage. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Select the form of presentation and the way of working:** At this point, I also decide on a video type (see here [[videotypen|Types of instructional videos: An overview]]) or presentation method. In this context, I need to consider how much effort I want to put into the video. With videos it is like with many other things, the more time and effort you put into the production, the higher the quality can become. But you can ask the same question, how can I reduce the effort to get an adequate or for me sufficient result in a certain time. In this context, the question arises whether I want to rework the video afterwards with a video editing program or whether I want to bypass exactly that. So the legitimate question can be asked, how can the effort in post-production be kept as low as possible? | ||
| + | |||
| + | **One-take principle: | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Record audio and video separately: | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Prepare: | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Creating and assembling recordings: | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Watching and evaluating the result in peace:** It is also advisable to watch the video again in peace at the end before it is published, in order to check whether there are still errors somewhere or things have been forgotten. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Tips for improving the quality of instructional videos==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | An educational video usually consists of two elements: the video images and the audio track. It has been shown that the quality of the soundtrack is often more important to viewers than the video images, i.e. viewers can better overlook image errors or image dropouts than dropouts in the soundtrack or disturbing background noise. Therefore, I would first like to discuss how the quality of the soundtrack can be improved. | ||
| + | |||
| + | First of all, it is a good idea to record the audio track separately from the video images. This allows you to concentrate more intensively on the individual elements, which usually takes more time, but also leads to a better overall quality of the video. | ||
| + | |||
| + | First, write the text you want to voice later. Then create a script. Then create the video and check again if you need to change anything in the text or if you have forgotten things. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Then record the text. You can use audio software for this. However, often the video editing software also offers the possibility to record audio. You can then use the video editing software to edit the audio and video together. | ||
| + | |||
| + | When writing the text, keep in mind that there is a difference between texts for reading and texts that are to be read or recorded. Especially for instructional videos, you should make sure to use short sentences. Active sentences are also better than passive sentences. When writing, make sure that the content is stringent and easy to follow. Instead of covering a lot of content in one video, it would be better to divide the content into several videos. | ||

| + | |||
| + | A simple way to improve the audio quality is to use an external microphone. There are different models for different needs. For good audio quality, professionals often use **directional microphones** attached to the camera. Such equipment is usually expensive. As an inexpensive alternative, | ||

| + | |||
| + | **Condenser microphones** are particularly suitable when recording video sequences and the audio track separately. Such microphones enable high audio quality. There are different ways to connect condenser microphones to a computer, smartphone or tablet. There are condenser microphones that first need to be connected to a so-called interface with a microphone cable. The interface is then connected to the PC or smartphone either with a USB cable or with an audio cable ( [[https:// | ||
| + | Some USB microphones already have small stands built in. Other microphones require extra stands. | ||

| + | Auphonic is a web service designed to help podcasters improve the audio quality of their audio productions. However, Auphonic can also be used to improve an audio track from an educational video. | ||
