Video learning
With the technological and digital development and multimedia, the development of education had to coincide with it. One of the means of education development is "media education", by using technology and technical media to facilitate the learning process and transfer it from old methods to modern ones.
Among the methods of media education is the use of modern technical resources such as the design of images, videos, figures and shapes, and their inclusion in the educational process by the teacher and explaining their method to students or the students doing these means as an example using modern design programs for images or video clips and producing work in this regard.
Among its benefits is increasing students' interaction and enthusiasm, providing a greater variety of educational styles
It has the additional advantage of responding to the audiovisual needs of students, as these multiple aspects related to e-learning using videos provide various opportunities that take into account the multiple intelligences of students.
By comparing the method of delivering information to students through traditional methods, which include texts, oral lectures, presentation slides, and other media
We come to the conclusion that videos outperform these methods by a large margin
For example, science teachers use videos and animations to illustrate experiments that cannot be done in the classroom
Or a lesson about volcanoes by showing a video of the reality of volcanoes in full detail
Or taking students on impossible field trips into the human body or into outer space.
