  • Educational motion picture can help people record and preserve the past and enable dynamic representational attributes to break the boundaries of time and space and reveal natural phenomena and study in remarkable detail(p.5).

  • Video Streams from the online services can save the time by transmitting through the Internet and add a new dimension to discussion boards whereby students can see and hear each other, which makes on-site and online courses more convenient and advantageous(p.9).

  • Mobile video enables video-enhanced field-based instruction(p.9), its Immediacy makes it possible for distance collaboration as students from different cities, states, or countries create short video documentaries of local history and share them with each other through YouTube(p.9).

However, some scholars are concerned about the use of video in the classroom, as Chareen and Ross highlighted. Concerns include the unique contribution that film and video provide to learning, poor work quality, debates about the propriety of entertainment media in education, and educator debates over the relevance of new motion picture technology in the classroom. In addition, practical factors such as access and equipment should not be disregarded as a physical hindrance to the development of the instructional media environment.

Many of the concerns raised above, in my opinion, are caused by the video's quality, people's stereotypes and prejudices about video entertainment, the inability of the teaching model and economic ability to adapt to video teaching, and other factors, the majority of which are unrelated to the educational video mechanism itself. Video has evolved into a broad variety of categories, including serious instructional films; and with the growth of economics and technology, video production and transmission will no longer be a problem; thus, I believe we should place more attention on the efficacy of the communication of video teaching.

In my opinion, some educational films are 'bad' because they do not fully exploit the video's properties and functionalities. For example, a person sits in front of the camera and reads the handout from start to finish. Given the expense of manufacturing, it is preferable to convert material to audio. On the other hand, Educational videos that mix pictures, sounds, and dynamics to effectively impart concepts and information are successful, I think.

Video impacts student learning behaviour positively with increased frequency of viewing, improved recall rates and improved study habits.

Nature of video products (combination of image and sound) helps with recall and therefore improves student outputs.
