Insights with NetSupport: Michael Wilkinson - Exploring ways videos can be used in education
Welcome to another episode of Insights with NetSupport!
The Insights series aims to provide an interesting and relevant topic, and a special guest who can shine some expert knowledge onto the subject so we can all learn something new!
In this episode, we were delighted to welcome the Managing Director of ClickView UK, Michael Wilkinson.
With a career in education and EdTech spanning many decades, starting with work in Community Learning Centres (CLCs) exploring effective technology use to support and enhance teaching and learning, entrepreneurial work creating his own EdTech company, and subsequent roles working with EdTech companies, Michael has an enviable amount of knowledge and insight into the education and EdTech space.
In this episode, we explored the many ways video can be used in education with a specific focus on areas such as:
· safeguarding young people when using video
· ways in which subtitles can improve literacy
· research into effective approaches with the use of video...
…among many others.
Video is a media which is continues to engage young people and, in our conversation, we dig deep into how teachers can use it effectively whilst helping reduce workload, time spent finding the right video, plus how this can be done safely.
We are also proud to share that ClickView is now a connector in our multi-award-winning classroom management and safeguarding tool, classroom.cloud.
To connect with Michael, you can find him on LinkedIn and on Twitter.
