Video-Supported education Alliance ViSuAL

Background:

Video Supported Collaborative Learning ViSuAL
-project was build on the facts that in teacher training and education in
general, seems to be lack of a workable pedagogy for the use of
video-based communication tools and platforms to support learning and
professionalization to prepare students for a knowledge-based economy
and society. In addition, teacher education and training is not
providing adequate pedagogical and technical competence for using video
tools for collaborative learning.

The ViSuAL-project aimed:

1)To develop, test and validate pedagogical models and practices for video-supported collaborative learning.

2)
To integrate the created pedagogical model and practices into the
teacher education and professionalization to capacitate future HEI
teachers.

3.To create, test and validate concepts for
experimentation based pedagogical co-creation in partnership of
education technology designers, pedagogical researchers, teachers and
their students.

4.To provide scientific evidence on the effect of
video-based communication tools on professionalization of teacher
trainees to support the validation of the pedagogical models.

5.To provide an assessment tool for evaluating impact of video-supported collaborative learning on professional development.
