The correlation of anatomy with pathophysiology is not intuitive for many medical students. Despite detailed cadaver dissections and three-dimensional models, board-style clinical correlation questions can still be challenging for first-year students. To facilitate understanding in this regard, prosections were developed to illustrate the clinical…

Clear, detailed instructional procedures have an important role to play in laboratory teaching to not only produce consistent results but also ensure safe practices. Student success in using these procedures can be strengthened through the use of video resources. However, not all video content will have the same impact. Videos must have sufficient…

This mixed-methods study examines how pre-service teachers select instructional videos on YouTube for physics teaching. The study focuses on the role of surface features that YouTube provides (e.g., likes, views, thumbnails) and the comments underneath the videos in the decision-making process using videos on quantum physics topics as an example.…

This study examined the effects of an integrated approach that combines segmentation and self-explanation designs on learner achievement for meaningful video-based learning. This was a pretest-posttest research design with a sample size of 121 participants randomly assigned to one of four different types of video instructions (continuous,…

Multimedia instructional materials are indispensable in the holistic process of instructional design, particularly for asynchronous online courses. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the impacts of background classical music played in an instructional video on learners' retention. The video started with a pretraining message…

Undergraduate university students experience a knowledge gap when required to use unfamiliar software applications without the benefit of direct instruction. As a solution, students often turn to online support, particularly video, but little is known about students' perceptions of the effectiveness of support videos. As libraries are a principle…

The educational potential of video is a long-lasting, multi-faceted topic, and the affordances of technological advancement have recently revitalised this discussion. However, teachers are still far from competently integrating or becoming accustomed to video-based pedagogy, especially in collaborative pedagogy. To provide teachers and teacher…

Instructional videos are a popular teaching and learning tool. Teachers use already existing videos and develop their own videos, in which they explain important domain concepts. The effectiveness of these videos depends on their instructional quality. To support future teachers in creating high-quality videos, we developed a training and compared…

Teachers can increase the retention of their students' attention and lead them to be engrossed in new, different, and innovative ways using videos. In the present condition wherein, all educational institutions are implementing hybrid learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic, technologies are becoming an inseparable part of students' life. This study…

Undergraduate research initiatives such as mentoring programs, conferences, and journals typically focus on the later stages of undergraduate studies. It is not unusual for a student to reach the final year of their program without developing their awareness of research within their discipline or their institution. SUREbyts is a project that…

Although serious games are generally praised by scholars for their potential to enhance teaching and e-learning practices, more empirical evidence is needed to support these accolades. Existing research in this area tends to show that gamified teaching experiences do contribute to significant effects to improve student cognitive, motivational, and…

This quantitative study investigated the impact of video format of instructional videos on information retention and perceptions of 146 preservice teachers at a small, state system school located in Western Pennsylvania. Using a pretest-posttest design, three different video formats were randomly presented to participants using an online survey.…

Undergraduate university students experience a knowledge gap when required to use unfamiliar software applications without the benefit of direct instruction. As a solution, students often turn to online support, particularly video, but little is known about students' perceptions of the effectiveness of support videos. As libraries are a principle…

Digital accessibility has become one of the most critical components for post-secondary student success because accessibility is the first step to learning for the diverse college student population. However, emerging studies show that teacher candidates experience challenges in program completion due to inaccessible course materials or course…

Regardless of whether video is used for an online course, or serves as supplemental material in another course format, the videos must be watched by students in support of their learning. If professors give video production their best effort and still end up with undesirable outcomes, how can institutions better support the production of…
