There is something to be said for in person peer to peer learning. My biggest problem was, I'd get hung up on a problem in some bizarre way. Often times when I'm learning in teacher to student only environment (or machine teacher and student), the teacher will notice the mistake, but have a hard time identifying the train of thought that got me there in the first place. Students have an easier time identifying mistaken amateur thought processes and fixing them. A typical (or automated) teacher is so far removed from amateur thought processes, they have a hard time empathizing. Where online learning systems fall short is the peer to peer. Yes, there are usually forums where students can communicate with each other. But it is lacking. The biggest problem students have with each other is misunderstanding. In a classroom, sitting next to another student, that misunderstanding usually only takes a few minutes, tops, to resolve. In an online forum, that misunderstanding could take days, frustrating students and forcing them to drop the class. I'm not sure if a video would help for someone like me. The problem is you're trying to streamline a process in how people learn. But people learn in all different ways. Accounting for all the different ways is hard. While I'm sure your video would work for some, chances are it won't work for most. |
