Don not Forget to remember that…!!!
Videos could only be used with advanced level students
Or Cultural aspects could be better introduced to more advanced Ss.
Video use is time consuming
Videos could ever substitute your role as a facilitator
04/11/23Abdeslam Badre Remember16
Remember to Remember!!!To evaluate and select the appropriate video materials
regarding length, content and language goals, and students’ level
Choice of the video: not too long this leads to loss of focus/ not too short this may luck context or and ample information for the learners
Find out if it fits the outlined goals and objectives of the lesson
Preview it first, and watch it a few times before using it
Prepare difficult and unusual vocabulary and grammar.
Break The Video Up Into Shorter Sections
