The Value of Video in Online Instruction.

Online educational instruction has become more prevalent in American and international educational institutions and is increasingly the chosen format for many academic programs. The use of web conferencing, virtual classrooms, and computer-based training are becoming the common platform in which schools provide education in online teaching. This paper will review the use of synchronous and asynchronous video in online classes and identify the value in using this form of media as an instructional method. Appropriate specific studies have been examined to determine the effectiveness of the format and resources implemented. Conclusions based on research indicate that different uses of video are effective in online education, but educators need to be prepared for many technological hurdles they and their institution must overcome.
