Teaching and Learning Science through Student-made Videos

Abstract

Digital video is an exciting emerging technology that can be used in schools to support, extend, or change pedagogy and curriculum outcomes. This paper outlines the results from a recently completed research project that investigated the use of student-made digital videos across the class K to XII curriculum in five schools of Bokaro, Jharkhand. This paper particularly examines the teachers’ rationales, students’ learning outcomes and the ways in which pedagogy was enhanced in the schools through the use of student-made digital video projects.
