Results (3)
Very informative. Made true studying more effective
I liked the quick overview the web lectures gave, which helped to get an idea
Every web lecture summed up the part in the book really well and in an interesting way
Results (4)
It was much easier to memorize the content through the web lectures, than just reading it in a book
It’s a lot, but they are not that long so it takes less time than you think
I would like to have more in-depth content in extra web lectures
Conclusions
‘Embed’ videos to ensure viewingShorter videos more manageableActivate video content during classDevelop ‘Video Teaching’ skillsStudents overwhelmingly positive Kirschner & van
