VIDEOS IN THE CLASSROOM

In a classroom there are many different types of learners and as a teacher we tend to cater for the auditory learners. The use of  videos can help the visual learners and it is a tool where the students can view and review the information and make notes.  The use of videos can help to stimulate classroom discussion based on the activity planned.
