Overview

Video workshop is a means for studying and improving teaching. This part uses the simulation of video workshop that happened in part 4 with the Pool Border Problem video to establish the steps in video workshops.

Key Points

Video is a powerful medium for supporting learning about one’s own teaching and learning with colleagues. The steps for engaging in the video workshop guide the actions of participants before, during, and after the viewing of a video.
