Using Videos versus Traditional Written Texts in the Classroom to Enhance Student Learning

Abstract Details

2015, Honors Theses, Ohio Dominican University, Honors Theses.
The focus of this research is the use of direct instruction outside of classroom time through the use of short instructional videos. Past research has focused on the use of video technology in the classroom and the effects of video technology in the classroom. However, past research on video technology has not examined whether or not text should be integrated with the lesson while the students watch the videos. Data was collected through a preliminary survey, pre-assessment, post assessment, and a post-survey. This study examined participants’ performance on a post assessment after learning a mathematical explanation through one of the following three methods of instructions: Text-only, Video-only, Video+Text. Results indicate that certain factors such as prior experience with videos affected the students rating on the Likert-scale questions. However, despite additional factors, the percent of correct responders on the post assessment was significantly higher for those who were given the Video+Text method of instruction compared to the other method of instructions.
