  3. Hi Aimee,

    I was not able to view your video, I kept getting a message saying it was private.

  4. Hey Aimee,

    The interviews with the individuals are really a nice touch on this. You definitely covered both sides of the decision. Did you have to go through the approval process to incorporate the students into the video?

  5. Yes I did a negative consent form to make sure all my bases were covered.

  6. Amie,

    I agree with Maria, the interviews were very informative and appeared genuine without appearing biased. I also liked the fact you cited several people in the narrative.

  7. Thank you Bob...

    I think I achieved what I wanted. I wanted it real and not appear like I had actors. I wanted their real opinions and not ones that I gave them from the research I was doing.

  10. I have to say that your video truly achieved the mark in that you used real people, in real settings. This turned your video into field research.
    Bravo!

  11. Aimee,

    I enjoyed watching your video because it showed how to do a video without using stills and words such as I did. I thought your interviews were well done. Did you find any other suggestions for motivating adult learners besides continuous feedback? I agree with the finding that "lack of instant feedback" is a problem for online learners and am working with this premise in KAK II.
    Thanks!

  13. Hi Aimee,

    Very informative video. I agree with the others, the interviews were the highlight of the video. I am most enjoying the videos where I see real footage of learning in action or hear from real learners. Being motivated while doing online learning is important. I know sometimes I am disappointed when the professor or other students responds to other students' posts and not mine. This is a great topic as it is hard to stay motivated when learning at a distance.

    Good Job!

  14. Aimee,
    I liked the comment from one of the students at the group table when you asked them how they would feel about an encouraging email from their teacher, "I would post it on my fridge!". That brought a smile to my face and made me think of sending my students an email this weekend. A nice call to action! What motivated you to choose this topic?

  15. Aimee, I loved your interviews and real world scenario. It seems very unrehearsed which is great when showing real world connections. It makes your film have the feel of a documentary.
