Using Video to support reflective teaching and learning Dr Julia Lawrence, University of Hull
Aim of the presentation • Research supporting the approach • What is the benefit? • Approaches we can adopt • Examples of practice
Early research supporting the approach • Reflection is an integral part of initial teacher education (ITE) • Teaching is a knowledge – based profession (Katene, 2004) • Through reflection the teacher is able to learn from their experiences, raising their personal self-awareness as well as modifying their teaching behaviours (Osterman and Kottkamp, 1993; Shulman and Shulman, 2004).
Traditionally reflection has focused on verbal or written feedback, resulting in predominantly descriptive accounts with achievement of standards evident through criterion reference or completion of prescribed competences (Katene, 2004). • Reflective process allows for the what, why and how can be reviewed in order to move learning on. • Trainee provides personal feedback on their own performance, a concept Cassidy et al (2006) argue is more beneficial than some traditional feedback provided by an external source.
What is the benefit? • Allows trainee to review own teaching • Development of reflective skills • Transformational learning takes place • Constructivist approach to learning.
What is the benefit? Tripp and Rich (2012) • Teachers reported that video encouraged change because it helped them: • focus their analysis, • see their teaching from a new perspective, • trust the feedback they received, • feel accountable to change their practice, • remember to implement changes, and • see their progress.
Approaches we can adopt • Video Stimulated Response • Shows what they are actually doing • Allows recall of the lesson • Views the lesson as a whole • Shows strengths and weakness • Lesson is videoed and then reviewed. • Lesson is videoed and specific activities captured • file://localhost/Users/julia/Box Sync/use of VSR/research tools/VEO - Getting Started 2 - The VEO App.pdf
