E-Learning in Education Video


"Students can quickly transfer video clips for the chapter or lesson
of the day using ClickView School Bag feature into a USB Thumb-drive"


In the past 20 years, there has been a massive revolution in information and communication technology (ICT). But in many classrooms, you could be forgiven for thinking this revolution never occurred. Not only do today’s young people own multiple ICTs, they use them constantly in their day-to-day life. It’s easy to regard the shift in use of technology as being something fundamentally new, but it’s not. For many young people, staying in close and regular contact with their peer group is very important. Remember when you socialised for hours on the telephone? Today it’s YouTube, MySpace and Facebook where young people build social networks and use ways that they feel most comfortable exchanging information.

“Chalk and talk” might just still work, but it’s hard work, and ignoring communication methods that can be much more effective for today’s student only makes your job harder. This program opens up a discussion about e-learning: what it’s good for, why we need it, and how we can encourage it in our schools. It looks at the revolution in youth communications, the implications of this on education, the meaning of multiliteracy and recent developments in e-learning from industry leaders.


This new educational program is now available on a DVD Format and will be added into the next ClickView Digital Video Library update. You may preview the full video online here

ClickView Digital Video Library

Many of the programs in VEA catalogue are available to ClickView customers as part of the ClickView digital video library. Whenever you see this icon next to a program title, you will know that it is available in the ClickView digital video library. 200 new titles had been released in 2007 by VEA and more programs this year . VEA has contributed over 700 programs to the ClickView digital video library and regularly adds new programs. The entire ClickView digital video library has more than 1300 programs and is still growing!

This is also great news for media librarians because, in the long-run, not only it is more cost effective way for them to easily manage academic digital video library, they can also provide various faculties with up-to-date video collection every year automatically. This reduces the hassle of the normal yet time consuming process of acquiring internationally produced educational videos for your lecturer's needs before. As the name said, Just CLICK & VIEW!
