Abstract

Curriculum and Pedagogy
A central task and challenge for university educators is to design learning experiences that offer the greatest potential for improving teaching and learning practice. For more than two decades there have been calls and attempts to innovate teaching and learning using new technologies. Video has been used for many years to support student learning in a variety of settings. Real-life information converted into text format often suffers from over-simplification. Using video may lead to enhanced description by the lecturer and better visualisation, recognition and memorisation by the student (Shephard, 2003). Furthermore, videos produced from a first person point of view can provide real life or close to real life examples with which learners can identify when they attempt to replicate a clinical skill. In addition to showcasing some of the videos produced, this presentation will discuss the results extracted from three focus groups conducted with staff involved in the production of first person point of view videos for clinical skills development in paramedic science students. Challenges and advantages of first person videos will be discussed including scripted vs non-scripted video production, blending of first person view videos with third person view videos and the important role this resource can play inside and outside the classroom.
