Making Video and Podcast content Classroom-ready
Across the world, teachers are incorporating videos and podcasts for teaching and learning uses, specifically as supplemental material and student assignments. Whether the digital content is five or sixty minutes long, your teachers should be able to easily pinpoint the concepts being served up. At the same time, the main educational concepts of the media source need to be extracted (this includes cross-curricular concepts), concise descriptions written, and crucial keywords should be readily available so that even if the teacher does not search by the actual learning concept, they can search using other relevant keywords that will lead them to a suitable video or podcast. And of course, aligning/mapping these videos to the appropriate standards or learning outcomes is vital to the marketing, sales, and adoption process.
You can rely on EdGate's team of digital specialists to handle all of the above and in addition, we assist digital publishers by "clipping" or bookmarking titles into segments. The content can be divided up into shorter segments (3, 5 or 10 minutes, for example). The purpose is to create chunks of content that are easy to incorporate into the classroom lessons.
This critical work ensures that teachers can quickly discover and use relevant digital content.
