What video is the best?

In my opinion, to choose a video lesson we need to keep in mind several criteria: • What kind of lesson is: for learning, training or evaluating ; think about the purpose of the learning, the goals you want students to achieve, • target group (age) and what their interests are • The length of the video (max 5 minutes) • Video need to be simple, short, with music and good quality • if video gives the information we consider necessary and basic. • If we need another educational tools.or another activities related to video • If the video motivated the students to critical thinking, discussion and work team (encourage collaboration) • Encourage students creativity What do you think?

I agree with your criteria. I will try to complete this list... For the moment, I want to say that is very important to watch the movie in technical-optimal condition and to be provided time for reflection and feedback...

These are interesting criteria.The language of the video is also important for me because I teach English and I achieve another goal by using such a video.

In addition, I think that another important point is to use the video in the lesson not all the time.I know that you say that but, I would like to completed that more video in one lesson can be not usefully for learn. It can disturb the process of learning .

I teach Romanian language and literature.I noticed that when I using audio-visual materials, my students pass easily the barrier of the text, they become interested, the boredom disappears and the critical thinking developed.
