Video-based collaborative learning: a pedagogical model and instructional design tool emerging from an international multiple case study

The educational potential of video is a long-lasting, multi-faceted topic, and the affordances of technological advancement have recently revitalised this discussion. However, teachers are still far from competently integrating or becoming accustomed to video-based pedagogy, especially in collaborative pedagogy. To provide teachers and teacher educators with sound principles for implementing video-supported collaborative learning (VSCL), this contribution analyses 12 VSCL case studies by five teacher-education institutions. The analysis verifies the benefits of a VSCL pedagogy for learning, and on this basis, we propose a pedagogical model for effective VSCL and a related instructional design tool. We also discuss implications for practice and research.</p
