How To Get The Most Out Of Watching Video
GOAL Identify two sections of the lesson that work and one or two sections that need improvement. | PREPARATION Watching oneself on video is one of the most powerful strategies teachers and coaches can use to improve their practice. However, it can take some time to become comfortable with the process. Here are some preparation tips: Find a place to watch where there are no distractions. Read through teacher and student surveys or other material to determine what to watch for. Set aside a block of time to watch the video uninterrupted. Have pen and paper ready to take notes. | WATCHING THE VIDEO Plan to watch the entire video at one sitting. Take notes on anything that is interesting. Be sure to include the time from the video beside any note. Watch for positive elements as well as areas needing improvement. After watching the video, review the notes and circle items to discuss with the coach. |
