Prof. Belinda Wang approached the ETO to create a series of videos for use in ECE110 (Electrical Fundamentals). She worked with James Zhan to create a series of re-usable videos. Over the course of two months (off and on), and including some training on self-recording using a Wacom tablet, Prof. Wang produced 18 videos (with some support from the ETO for graphics and editing). The result is a re-usable video collection that can be expanded and iterated as needed. In the introduction video, Prof. Wang says, “I have prepared a series of problem-solving videos to help you gain the confidence and abilities to tackle the problems on your own.” This type of project supplements other course activities (both in-person and online) and add a mechanism for learners to self-study at their own pace, building confidence in the material. By hosting on YouTube, the content is reliable, responsive to devices, and is auto-captioned.
While the video series is not available publicly, Prof. Wang has given permission for two example videos to be shared openly.
