Why?
»Digital video is now a ubiquitous part of our daily lives yet it remains underused in education – especially for assessment purposes
» The nature of the media itself presents problems - large files that are difficult to navigate, reference and share
» The Big Red Button toolkit aims to overcome these obstacles by enabling users to identify and share extracts from video resources in the form of ‘virtual clips’
Why? # 2
»Works on tablets, smart phones and PCs
» capture and share authentic evidence of knowledge and skills in workplace and community settings and submit for assessment.
»More flexible and inclusive forms of assessment
» Evidence for; improving employment opportunities, meeting regulatory requirements, recording personal development and supporting career advancement.
Clipper: In a nutshell
» Clipper 1. 2. 3.1. Clip: Create a virtual clip
(i.e. source file, start and stop point)
2. Organise: Annotate and store clips and cliplists
3. Share: Cool URIs for sharing playable clips and cliplists
“making video and audio as easy to work with as text”

Phases 1 and 2: Community feedback
» Phase 1› “it’s genius, it’s just what we need”
– Gill Hamilton: Digital Access Manager, National Library of Scotland
» Phase 2
› “with these sort of annotations on the clip, then I would be using nothing else for the rest of my life”
– Peter Hohenstein: Group Leader, Developmental Biology, Roslin Institute
› “getting that 360 degree picture of a research output would be really useful if it was easy and not the pain that it is today”
– Marc Silberschatz: Theatre Researcher, Royal Conservatoire of Scotland

RCS pilot: Demo & Hands-on
http://clippertube.com/rcs/dip clipper30
RCS pilot: Demo & hands-on
»RCS Pilot Scenario› re-use of cultural media collections in open education
»Workflow› create and open a new project› add multiple source files to the project› preview the files and create clips › add annotations to clips› sharing clips to cliplists
Discussion & feedback
» Reactions?› Uses? Pros? Cons? Usable? Improvements?
» Implications for academic practice?› Overcoming the limits of traditional textual and numerical
information in education – in the context of assessment of practice-based learning. › Makes audio-visual information as easy to cite, reference
and quote as text in academic discourse› Transgresses the hegemony of the written word in
academia …
The Big Red Button: Next steps
» Including education and training in our focus
» Phase 3:› Rebuild prototype from scratch› Mobile first› Modern , open and scalable tech› Free open source code
» Post Phase 3 - New projects and funding…
