I made a comment on Leo’s post on SECTIONS and the importance of good video editing.

Hey Leo, wonderful thoughts on the importance of good video editing. It is true when I tried to edit my own screencast from last weeks activity, it was more difficult and not to mention time consuming then I thought it would be. All video editors have my respect as they are responsible for creating the best product to spread their content to the most amount of people. Some small changes can make a world of difference for the viewers in terms of understandability and overall experience. It is pretty insane that anyone with a smart device can create content and edit it to an acceptable quality.

Hey Anna! Wonderful perspective on screencasting. I agree that screencasting is an important avenue to support the dual coding theory and allows many people, who have schedules, to get in some extra learning on their own time. Screencasting is a great way to share ones knowledge on their digital platform (which everyone is on nowadays). It can benefit students, teachers, parents, and any other professionals that want to learn at their own pace (rewinding videos is super helpful) Also, nice video about installing Honey, it’s funny to see how many Youtubers advertise that Google Chrome Extension.

This is a response to Leo’s blog post on Augmented reality in Education.

Hey Leo! Thanks for sharing that wonderful video on the potential Augmented Reality (AR) has within the education environment. It summarizes so many good points about AR such as increasing accessibility through our phone cameras, and visualizing concepts in three dimensions while students can interact with them in various applications. In the future, when it becomes more affordable, students can have a different learning experience that differs from watching lectures to potentially having a interactive learning where the uses their eyes and fingers.

I also really enjoyed your infographic on telehealth services in BC as it was such an important service that helped many people get healthcare advise, and information from healthcare providers without leaving their homes. Although not every visit should be done over the internet, somethings really can help patients not miss a day of work, or hire a babysitter for a day.

I recently Commented on Allens first post about Learning Theories:

Hey Allen! Great post on learning theories. You decided to cover something I did not focus on my post. Interesting TedEd video. Your PowerPoint is really good and include good visuals. I especially like the one with whitelist hacking cycle. Cybersecurity is a wonderful topic too as it is increasing more relevant and important as things such as blockchain are used more, and the abundance of health information that needs to be protected. It is a dynamic environment where anything can happen. i.e. Lifelabs breach https://globalnews.ca/news/6311853/lifelabs-data-hack-what-to-know/
