Question

A question for all the students (about math videos).

"Which kind of math video do you find most helpful?"

1) Screen-capture+ voiceover (no face)

2) Video of hand + whiteboard (no face)

3) Person's face + whiteboard

(These are all videos about fractions so they are covering the same content, but in different video format.)

I ask because I want to start making math videos, and I want to know what formats you find most helpful. :) Thank you for your thoughts!

Answer 1

I prefer 3 but most of my students love Khan Academy (1)

Answer 2

ill say the third one because its more clearer and i prefer or like to study on the board not on papers

Answer 3

Thank you for your feedback. I want to include lots of graphing calculator action into my videos, so I'll have to do some editing between "standing in front of board + writing on board" and "Screencapture of Geogebra doing cool stuff with graphs." :)

Answer 4

1 and 3, but i prefer 1

Answer 5

1 would be great.

Answer 6

I think the best one is number 1, as for the format of the video. But the quality of the animation is very bad. Something like that, but done with a little more work would be amazing.

Somthing like this, but obviously slower and clearer, but this kind of presentation and dynamism is very helpfull, i think. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxWOPC_JC4s

I do digital animation, kind of like the one from the video, but way better... i've never done didactic material but if you ever need a video done, tell me and maybe i can help.
