YouTube and Online Teaching in Higher Education: a pilot project
2017-2018 Coordination Completed
This project predates the establishment of the group in 2019. It belongs to the track record of its members.
Objectives
Bring YouTube, the cloud and social media into the university classroom to support online teaching in Economics and Business, with audiovisual materials created by the students themselves. A pilot project focused on active learning and on opening the content to anyone interested.
Results and indicators
The open YouTube channel JE SUIS ECONPLUS was created, with materials produced by students, together with project profiles on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. 214 students from four Economics and Business courses took part, with lower absenteeism and higher student engagement. The project concluded with the 1st Conference on Digital Transformation and Creativity in Higher Education and the 1st YouTube Content Creation Contest in Economics and Business (#ECOTUBEX2018), both with wide participation.
