Video Integration in the Classroom

Name of Video: Mr. Duey-Fractions Official video From: www.teachertube.com

1. What topic(s)/subject(s)/content is this video applicable to?

This video is applicable to math-specifically, turning improper fractions into a
mixed number, and turning a fraction into a decimal or a percent. It could also be
used as an example of how a teacher may use a video or music to help teach
concepts.

2. What audience and setting would you use this video in?
I would use this video in a classroom in which fraction concepts are being taught
to help students understand how to turn an improper fraction into a mixed number
or how to turn a proper fraction into a decimal or a percent. I might use it in a
college classroom as an example of how teachers can use video or music to teach
concepts.

3. Identify three activities that would integrate this video into your curriculum?
(Differentiated Instruction is essential to overall classroom learning).
a. Lower level students may focus on the parts of a fraction and what the
parts mean, as well as adding and subtracting of fractions.
b. Middle level students may work with comparing fractions with unlike
denominators.
c. Upper level students may work on converting improper and mixed
fractions and turning fractions into decimals and percents.
All students in this class would benefit from the video, as the information
covered in the video may be the ultimate goal (objective) for the unit.

4. What lesson plan(s)/unit(s) of study could this video be designed around?

The lesson plans/units of study that this video could be designed around include
using videos to help teach concepts, fraction unit for upper elementary or middle
grades, using music to help teach concepts, or how to make a teaching video.

5. Which learning theories could be empowered by the use of this video?

Learning theories that could be empowered by the use of this video are: Howard
Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences; Jerome Bruner’s Motives for Learning;
Skinner’s theories of human nature, learning, and transmission; Lev Vygotsky’s
social conditioning; John Bransford and the CTGV’s anchored instruction, and
many more.
