Video-based Learning in Higher Education — A Holistic View of Pedagogical and Implementation Strategies

Xiaoxia Wang, Yong Chen

Abstract


Video-based learning has become a widely accepted digital learning method. Videos are used to present and elaborate on concepts, explain complex problems, demonstrate a procedure, or gain an understanding of learning in action. The benefits of using videos in education have been discussed for several decades in research (Hansford & Adlington, 2009; Malaga, 2017; SAGE Publications, 2015; Woolfitt, 2015). Videos enable learners to engage in the cognitive learning process and help them make sense of the learning materials. This paper discusses the pedagogical principles of using videos for learning. The authors examine possible pathways and strategies for implementing video-based learning in higher education, from setting up institute support to utilizing video-hosting platforms. This paper aims to provide theoretical and operational insights for digital learning professionals to enhance individual and organizational confidence and readiness in integrating videos.
