Methods & Techniques: Techniques for Increasing Student Learning from Educational Videos: Notes Versus Guiding Questions
Lawson, Timothy J.; Bodle, James H.; McDonough, Tracy A.
Teaching of Psychology, v34 n2 p90-93 2007
We examined the effectiveness of several techniques for enhancing student learning from educational videos. Introductory psychology students (N = 113) watched a video about intelligence and testing while taking notes, not taking notes, writing answers to guiding questions, or thinking about guiding questions without writing answers. Afterward, students took a quiz containing questions on the video information; half of the quiz questions were related and half were unrelated to the guiding questions. Results showed that students who wrote answers to the guiding questions had the highest quiz performance on items related to the guiding questions. The 4 groups did not differ significantly in their performance on items unrelated to the guiding questions.
