Thing 7: Using Audio/Video

I am a firm believer in incorporating audio/video resources into classrooms. In my teaching experiences, they have proven invaluable in engaging even the most distracted students.

The following video could be incorporated into the biomechanics unit of a physical education class. “The Human Bones Song” presents information about the skeletal system in a more memorable and engaging way.

To use this video in my teaching, I would take a flipped classroom approach and have the students first view it at home prior to class. Obviously they will not watch one video and magically retain all of the information, however this would give them the opportunity to come to class prepared with any questions they may have.
