“How Is Your Phone Changing You?” By AsapSCIENCE is a YouTube video that summarizes the ways your phone can negatively and positively affect your everyday behaviours. Since my group is writing our Interactive Learning Resource about “Sleep”, the video topic seemed fitting to include in my blog post.
The YouTube video is informative, yet simplified. Such that it fits the needs of our targeted audience.
Type of Response
The video will require a designed learning interaction. Design learning interaction is defined by Bates (2019) as a medium (in this case, this video) accompanied by an activity (quiz). After watching the YouTube video, students will be required to fill out a quiz that tests their overall comprehension about the article. The contents in the video will be quizzed along with the general blog post; therefore, it is important to watch attentively.
The goal of the blog post is to provide a certain level of comprehension. That is why I chose to use quizzes as it not only does a quick overview of the blog, but will also provide students a chance to reflect on their progress.
Type of Technology
Because I will be implementing a quiz, the lesson will be computer-based learning. The quiz is online. And will provide the student automatic feedback, where it grades their comprehension out of 100. The automatic feedback is accessible for any students because it will be embedded on the webpage. All students will get feedback as long as they fill out the quiz.
Video Inclusivity
“How Is Your Phone Changing You?” provides a caption. Hence, people with hearing-impairments will have an easier time consuming content. Also, the subtitles can be translated to other languages. So, any students who do not have English as their first language can have an easier time as well.
