This book conceptualises the ways in which video has created a pedagogy for current learning and teaching practices, disciplines, and environments. It brings together the concepts and practice of video as pedagogy by providing theoretical discussion and practical guidance and recommendations on the use of video in learning and teaching, drawing on a wide range of case studies including nursing education, business education, architectural education, engineering, mathematics, physical education, science education, and screen production. Part I focuses on ‘video, students and learning’ and Part II on ‘video, teachers and practice’. The book covers various perspectives on the concept and use of video in learning and teaching: developing students’ practical skills and knowledge; using video for teaching culturally sensitive topics and cultural competency; for feedback, reflection, training and professional development; making and producing videos for educational purposes, with discussion on techniques, devices, software and strategies.
