Abstract

Integrating different types of media to deliver subject materials to students is becoming ubiquitous in higher education due to the explosion of Web 2.0 tools and digital technologies that are now available. Among these computer and Internet-based innovations, educational digital video clips have become prominent due to their capabilities for providing stimulus for deeper thought processes, communication and interaction among users. These benefits occur when digital videos are combined with effective pedagogy. Traditional delivery of videos through television and analogue recorders has long been part of higher education, but the rise of cloud-based digital video has made a significant impact on the blended learning landscape. This paper reports on interview data involving lecturer participants at a rural and tropical university in Australia. The results provide evidence of the challenges that they face in implementing online videos in their teaching.
