In the past, books were placed in the sun for drying, allowing passersby to see the books; now, we have showcasing classes, directly presenting course content for everyone to view. How can course content be displayed for all to see? By recording the class content and posting it online for those who need to watch.
Good teaching deserves to be learned from, as education progresses. Teachers can learn from observing each other's teaching, improving themselves and continually enhancing teaching quality. However, teachers may not always find time or location suitable for observation. If Teacher A's free time does not align with Teacher B's class schedule, or if Teacher C from another school wants to observe but finds it inconvenient to travel, the presence of observers can also disrupt the teaching environment for both the teacher and students.
By recording class content, these challenges can be addressed. Teachers unable to attend a class in person can simply watch the recorded video; teachers in other locations can view the video online without the need for travel; and the teacher and students in class will not be disturbed, maintaining the usual class experience.
Healthy competition is a driving force for progress. Only by recognizing one's shortcomings can continuous improvement occur. Therefore, an appropriate evaluation system can motivate teachers to enhance their teaching quality. Peer evaluations among teachers, student evaluations of teachers, and even evaluations by professionals are all motivators for teachers to improve. However, apart from students being able to attend their own teachers' classes, others must attend in person, which may not align with their schedules.
Therefore, recording the teacher's class can easily provide other teachers and even external organizations access to view the content, allowing students from other classes to watch and evaluate as well. Gathering feedback from various sources can provide teachers with more reference points.
Teaching recordings offer a time-saving and convenient way for consultations. Teachers can record themselves (keeping in mind the quality and angle of the video for better observations) or enlist help from the Center for Teaching Excellence to assist in recording their teaching videos. Center staff can then confidentially share these videos with internal or external consultants to analyze the teachers' teaching situations. If a teacher wants to focus on a specific aspect, they can indicate which areas they want the consultants to pay special attention to.
With the impact of declining birth rates, schools face increased pressure to enroll students. How to stand out among many schools is a major challenge. Most parents hope their children will excel academically, so recording and posting the content of excellent teachers on the school website can enhance parents' trust in the school's teaching capabilities, assuring them that their child’s performance will improve if enrolled. This approach also increases the school's visibility online.
The benefit of teaching recordings is that teachers can rewatch their own classes, aiding in the improvement of storytelling and interaction techniques, suitable for teachers seeking to enhance their teaching. Students often forget parts of the lesson after class; teachers do the same. Human memory is limited, and in at least a 45-minute class, it’s impossible for teachers to recall everything covered. Even the best teachers have areas for improvement, and only through continuous enhancement can teaching quality be elevated.
Thus, recording one's class content allows teachers to review it from a student's perspective, thinking about how to make the material clearer for listeners.
The same course content is often repeated across different classes or academic years. If a class is recorded, it can be played in subsequent classes, saving the time needed to prepare the same material again. The time saved can be spent improving teaching quality, such as reviewing one’s teaching video to enhance explanation skills. A class recorded this year can be used next year. Content from Class A can be used immediately in Classes B and C!
Within student populations, there are bound to be varying levels of understanding. Students with lower ability levels may sometimes struggle to keep up with the teacher's speed, leading to gaps in understanding. Requesting the teacher to slow down may not be fair to the more capable students. Having videos that can be replayed is a tremendous help for those who struggle. They don't have to disrupt the teacher’s progress; they can listen again to reinforce their understanding. Students can review after class at their own pace, pausing when needed to think and take notes.
In the cost expenditures of tutoring centers, instructor salaries account for a significant proportion. By saving on these costs, there is increased financial flexibility for other uses in the tutoring center. For different classes with the same course content, recording one class and playing it in another allows for payment of only one instructor’s salary.
The class schedule for tutoring centers is fixed, but that may not align with the students’ preferred times. If students have after-school activities such as basketball or baseball that they must forfeit to attend tutoring, their willingness to attend will decrease. If they can freely arrange class times, it will meet both their activity and learning needs, thereby increasing their willingness to attend tutoring. Having recorded class content available for flexible scheduling will create a win-win situation.
For tutoring centers, having good teachers is vital for continual growth. Therefore, teacher training is an important aspect. Every renowned teacher was once a novice, and the mentorship of established teachers is crucial for helping new teachers become strong educators. However, the time available for established teachers to teach is limited. If recordings of established teachers' classes are made available, new teachers can maximize their time by watching these videos repeatedly, learning from the best.
Most tutoring centers have fixed class times, but those times may not be suitable for the students. After experiencing a lesson, students may have questions they wish to clarify, and having the option to replay the recorded content alongside the new lesson provides continuity. With recorded lessons, students can study at their own preferred times without being bound to the center's schedule.
Tutoring centers often have different teachers for classes. After attending one teacher's class, students may wish to explore other teachers’ methods. By recording class content, students can then select lessons from different teachers, even accessing courses from renowned teachers in other regions without the limitations of geography.
When students choose a tutoring center, they typically take trial lessons first. However, parents may not always accompany their children to these trials, making it difficult for them to assess the quality of teaching. If the tutoring center records its classes and provides these videos for parents to view, they won't have to spend time going to the center. This allows parents to understand the quality of teaching at the center and feel more comfortable enrolling their children.
New employees are onboarded every year, and effective training, such as teaching workflows or operational methods, is essential. However, since the arrival times of employees may differ, effective unified training can be challenging. Training in batches can also increase the company’s costs. By recording one training session and showing it to new employees, the burden of arranging additional trainers is relieved, and costs are saved.
Sales are crucial for company growth. However, marketing isn’t limited to sales alone; customer service and reception staff also represent the company’s image. Training these employees in their interactions can enhance the company's external image, increasing its perceived value. Good sales training can be demonstrated by top-performing employees for others to learn from. More frequent training sessions can help refine various details. However, companies may not always offer multiple sessions; recording the training allows employees to review them independently, improving their skills and increasing the company's value.
Employees wishing to revisit training sessions don't need to wait for the company to schedule another one; they can use the recorded content from previous training sessions, enabling them to learn and progress independently. For example, sales personnel may find it hard to grasp all the nuances of a sales pitch from a single listening. By repeatedly watching the recorded videos, they can practice and refine their skills, thus increasing their personal value.
How doctors communicate with patients is a significant part of treatment. Doctors must deduce possible causes based on what patients say, so the quality of communication impacts treatment outcomes. However, during actual consultations, doctors may find it challenging to explain important points to students because the focus is on resolving patient issues, not teaching. Recording consultations allows teachers to show students the videos afterward, serving as teaching material. The videos can be paused or rewound, enabling doctors to emphasize important points in their communication.
Reviewing consultation videos also serves as a self-improvement tool for doctors. They can reflect on their consultations and learn what needs adjustment, such as the content of their speech, to reassure patients. If patients later return for follow-ups and express dissatisfaction with treatment results, doctors can review previous consultations to identify areas for improvement.
Besides self-improvement, doctors can form study groups. By playing each other's consultation videos, they can discuss areas for improvement and share experiences for mutual learning. After establishing a constructive feedback loop, doctors can continuously learn, enhancing their consultation skills, which is a boon for both the medical field and patients.
When medical students observe doctors during consultations, they might feel uncomfortable asking questions due to patient confidentiality. However, if the consultation process is recorded, students can use the videos to freely ask questions and discuss how to improve communication with patients, enabling deeper exploration of specific cases.
Patients typically gain their understanding of illnesses from doctors, but due to time constraints and the number of patients, doctors find it challenging to explain every detail within the limited time. Thanks to the internet, patients can access a wealth of medical knowledge, but this can also lead to misinformation. Thus, the best solution is for hospitals to provide accurate information through their teaching videos. Patients can select the pathophysiology knowledge they want to learn, ensuring they better understand their conditions, ultimately leading to more effective treatments.
