MIT study shows how educational videos could be better<\/strong><\/a> — from bostinno.streetwise.co by Clinton Nguyen<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

Subgoal labeling turned out to be a big success for users, and that mode of thinking transferred to newer tasks beyond the initial one.<\/p>\n

\u201cImmediately [after the first task], we asked people to attempt another problem, and we found that the people who got the subgoal labels attempted more steps and got them right more often, and they also took less time,\u201d said Mark Guzdial, a professor at Georgia Tech who\u2019s who’s had a hand in similar research for the past five years.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we asked them to try a new problem that they\u2019d never seen before, 50 percent of the subgoal people did it correctly, and less than 10 percent of the people who didn\u2019t get subgoals did that correctly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\n<\/strong>Meerkat users can now add #Katch to their Twitter posts and the service will automatically record their livestreams and post them on YouTube.<\/em><\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

One of the major successes of this month\u2019s SXSW festival was Meerkat<\/a> \u2014 a live streaming app which enables users to create and broadcast video footage in the moment. Videos are shared with the world, live, via the user\u2019s own Twitter account, before disappearing forever into the ether of internet-past. That was until hacker Tarikh Korula launched #Katch<\/a>, a simple hashtag which enables Meerkat users to auto upload their livestreams to YouTube, immortalizing them forever.<\/p>\n

Wipster and Adobe Voice<\/a> <\/strong>— from markdubois.info by Mark DuBois<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

I have been experimenting with the Wipster application<\/a> for a few weeks. Essentially, this is a site where you post a video for others to review and approve. They can add comments in the video (as it plays). Although the service is not free, I am finding this to be very helpful for work I am doing with our student chapter of Web Professionals as well as within various courses I teach. What I find most beneficial is the use of Adobe Voice to generate short videos on a topic and then seek feedback via Wipster.<\/p>\n

Also, though this isn’t just about video, I’m going to include it here anyway:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
