Learning to teach through video | In the Library with the Lead Pipe…

It’s a truth so many of us keep in the dark corners of our lives as instruction librarians: we were never taught to teach. We’re not unusual, really, and…

This is a great summary, thanks! Also, thanks for the shoutout-I’m Nadaleen, author of: Tempelman-Kluit, N. (2006). Multimedia Learning Theories and Online Instruction. College & Research Libraries, 67(4), 364 – 9.
I love the Common Craft video examples as a good example of less is more. I actually tried a few of these type of videos for the library, and the process highlighted just how hard they are to make, and how much expertise they involve.

Here’s an example of me and one other person mucking about to make pretty awful Common Craft *type* vidoes with library content: http://www.nyu.edu/library/resources/ntk/movie/teaching_lib.html

Just as we-Instructional Design Librarians-aren’t trained in learning theory, we are also not technical experts in all things. I think to make such videos great, you’d need to work with a graphic designer and filmaker.

Anyway, food for thought and thanks again for a great post!

Even better, a repository of the videos as raw material (video clips, audio clips), so that different libraries could remix their own version (with their own specific logos/peculiarities… kind of like NIN releasing songs for fans to remix in Garageband.

Fantastic article Kim. Thanks for summarizing and sharing. I think more of us could also be using what’s already out there and good as opposed to creating new mediocre. Going on some of the collaboration ideas from Jean’s post, I’d love to see a curated repository of exemplary instruction videos that would could direct students to. I know there are a number of places collecting instruction videos, and even specifically library instruction, but I haven’t seen one with a quality control mechanism or with explicit please copy this licensing.

this is cool. but man, creation (meaning “quality” creation) is really time-consuming. shooting a simple video with narration isn’t too hard with some rehearsal, but this professional production stuff is a full-time gig. a couple of years ago, I presented a program for creating flash-based instruction using Powerbullet and Wink (free software) for simple instruction (the files are still accessible here, http://www.pbclibrary.org/SEFLIN/energize.htm), but I haven’t gotten into video editing. before I became a librarian, I thought I would be a media specialist, so I took a few eduction classes, and before that, I thought I could get into TV so I had some production training, so the theory for video production and instruction is still in my brain, somewhere (maybe). and about converting ppt to video (re: “Ron says”), I save the slides as size 14.2 x 10.7 jpgs (matches a 1028 x 764 resolution screen) then use Nero VisionExpress that came with my DVD-burner to make video shows with pretty-good slide transitions. I have one in VCD format that plays on a cheap DVD player and it runs all day on an old TV in the teen area. (sorry, to go on so long..) thanks again.
