5 Does video belong in the academy?

6 Blended learning should transform learning, not just replicate teaching: Companies want graduates who can source, filter and use existing knowledge to create new knowledge, and the university is key to equipping students with these skills. Yet we seldom see technology tools being used in radically new ways in HE. They are usually used to replicate lectures - think of websites or podcasts - rather than enabling students to learn in new ways. http://www.guardian.co.uk/higher-education-network/blog/2012/mar/06/using- technology-in-university-teaching Video caters for different learning styles and places emphasis on the development of C21 skills in an increasingly global and competitive employment market. These skill sets consist of: student motivation, learner engagement, social skills and digital and multimedia literacy. In addition, video has the potential to enhance critical problem-solving skills and enable learning in context through greater opportunity for discussion. Finally, video emphasizes the role of the educator by enhancing the proficiency of teaching and technical ability of educators., http://www.cisco.com/web/strategy/docs/education/ciscovideowp.pdf http://www.cisco.com/web/strategy/docs/education/ciscovideowp.pdf Yes
