Ten benefits of using instructor-developed screencasts to help students learn maths: an AIT case study

In January 2013, we undertook a case study to look at how first, second and third year AIT students taking Algebra and Calculus courses under Mr Frank Doheny (N=266) used screencasts to help them learn Maths. The screencasts, ranging between 1:49 and 11:20 minutes in length, were developed to demo...

The screencasts, ranging between 1:49 and 11:20 minutes in length, were developed to demonstrate specific Maths keyskills that students had difficulty with. To explore students’ views and uses of the screencasts, we administered an open-response survey on the relevant Maths Moodle pages. A total of 138 students from Mechanical & Renewable Engineering(MRE), Computer Network Management (CNM), Electronic & Computer Engineering (ECE), and Sports & Nutrition Science (SNS) responded to the survey, constituting a response rate of 52%.
