Talk:Video and Audio Production for Educators
Peer Review
Andrea,
Great topic! Your portfolio page reports all of the instructional analysis work we have learned throughout this course. I find it very important for educators to understand how to effectively create media to go along with their instruction. [My question] Do you see a benefit in adding a section about accessibility of this media to your mini course? With the growing trend in online education I believe learning about building media with accessibility in mind would be beneficial to all educators.
You’re learning outcomes are identified and properly aligned with your instruction. I believe the learning experience you are providing will enable the participants of this course to achieve the learning outcomes. In review of your first lesson (Planning), you have provided plenty of interaction and engagement with your audience to ensure deep learning. The videos are very informative and helpful in understanding the importance of planning your project before you start. Overall I believe you are doing a great job designing your mini course.

Hi Andrea,
Your mini-course was well designed and presented with clear learning objectives addressed by the units that form into a progressive sequence to support learning. Your learning activities support students' engagement, understanding, reflection, and authentic application. Nice work.
A few suggestions:
- Considering the potential needs of the learner: I guess many educators are either not fully aware of the great value of video/audio in the classroom, or are "scared" of video and audio production because they do not know the easy tools. Your main page could better invite the participants to this topic by highlighting the value and the easy tools within reach.
- You last unit will be very important to highlight the educational use!
- It's a good idea to use the discussion tab for reflection focusing a few questions. You may included these questions in the discussion tab of each unit. I've done so for your unit 1 as an example. If you like it, you may do the same for the other units.
