Using animation, video and motion graphics to make education more interesting has been in the works for decades. This trend has recently exploded because schools & universities have been forced to turn to e-learning. Remote learning has grown by leaps and bounds just like remote working.
Of course, children and youngsters miss seeing their mates in schools and colleges. But they have also experienced the benefits of learning online by googling information immediately when required. Where available and video lessons with graphics have made concepts simpler and more fun to understand.
Below, we will explore some whys and hows on using explainer videos to improve education
1. Make science and math fun
Animations can help a school going child instantly understand not only the solar system but also the vortex motion of the planets behind the sun shooting through space. Complex math equations can be simplified through dynamic text explainer videos. Not just science and math, but explainer videos can come to the rescue in any subject anytime the going gets too complex or boring.
2. Help students learn at their own pace
Everyone has their own talents, favourite subjects and learning speed. The traditional classroom fails to serve all students equally because some are forced to learn faster, while some are forced to go slower. Videos help students to skim through if required, pause if required, and rewatch whenever needed for optimal understanding.
3. Teachers can cover more in less time
Explainer videos help educators save time by taking away the pain of repeating complex topics over and over again until all the students understand them. Explainer videos remove the speed breaker parts and make lessons breezy. They also give the teacher time to pause and reflect on how the lesson is going instead of continually explaining without a break.
4. Videos make tests fun too
The digital medium allows for innovating test designs. Students don’t need to put pen to paper and regurgitate rote learning anymore. Multimedia including videos can be part of questions that help test real knowledge and understanding far more effectively.
5. The best lessons, institutes & teachers can go global
A great lesson designed and delivered by a talented teacher or an institute will find its way to far more minds in the borderless online world. Eventually, video playlists of the best lessons will be created and learning will improve even faster for countless students. Teachers can give all their energy into a single recording and have it make more impact by combining it with an explainer video than having to repeat the same lesson for a small set of students. In an ideal world, education sector explainer videos would be more viral than tik-toks.
