PDW: YouTube and the Classroom: Using Student-Generated Videos to Demonstrate Learning
Sponsored by MED, OB and BPS.
Saturday, August 8th, from 12:20-2:20 p.m. in Skyway 269 Hyatt Regency. (No registration required)
Do you have your students create YouTube videos for your courses? Would you like to hear about the experience of others who do?
If yes to either one of these questions, we hope you will consider joining us for a PDW to discuss Student-Generated Videos and Teaching. Our session is designed to create an open discussion about the challenges and benefits of using student-generated videos. It will focus on the benefit of using videos, resources and tools for making videos, and then discuss experiences in Organizational Behavior and Business Strategy courses. We welcome others with experience with or who are interested in using student-generated videos to join in our discussion.
Hope to see you in Chicago.

YouTube and the Classroom: Using Student-Generated Videos to Demonstrate Learning
Abstract
This workshop focuses on using student-generated videos in management courses. As the general interest in creating and viewing personally made videos continues to increase, questions arise over how educators can incorporate these videos into a management course. What are the pedagogical benefits of a video assignment? How should one structure the assignment and incorporate it into a course's overall learning objectives? What are the technical issues associated with creating videos? To answer these and other questions, the session will begin with presentations on the pedagogy of video creation and on overcoming technical issues. Following, speakers will provide examples of how these assignments were designed in Organizational Behavior and Business Strategy courses (and perhaps others). The session will then have a general discussion about student-generated video issues common to all management courses, before turning to small group discussions to explore specific issues in more depth. Workshop attendees should leave with the ability to incorporate a student-generated video assignment into their management courses.
