WEBVTT 00:00:00.990 --> 00:00:04.270 - The course does not use traditional lectures. 00:00:04.270 --> 00:00:08.210 Instead, I teach or explain things on video. 00:00:08.210 --> 00:00:10.300 These videos are interactive 00:00:10.300 --> 00:00:12.930 in that they contain tasks that you can do 00:00:12.930 --> 00:00:16.070 to check if you have understood the concept. 00:00:16.070 --> 00:00:18.730 Let's take a look at how interactive videos work. 00:00:18.730 --> 00:00:20.180 When you're working on a unit, 00:00:20.180 --> 00:00:23.070 there's a list of videos in the beginning 00:00:23.070 --> 00:00:26.709 and your task is to go through the videos, watch them 00:00:26.709 --> 00:00:30.900 and I recommend the sequence that they are showed here. 00:00:30.900 --> 00:00:34.440 When you click on a video, then the player opens. 00:00:34.440 --> 00:00:37.080 So this is the image of the player 00:00:37.080 --> 00:00:40.520 and let's take a look at what is actually in there, 00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:41.367 in the video player 00:00:41.367 --> 00:00:44.550 and how to use the video player efficiently. 00:00:44.550 --> 00:00:48.200 The player always opens with the bookmarks bar open 00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:50.430 and the bookmarks allow to go 00:00:50.430 --> 00:00:52.500 to specific parts of the video. 00:00:52.500 --> 00:00:56.590 This is useful if you want to go back and check something. 00:00:56.590 --> 00:00:59.380 For example, you have watched a couple of videos 00:00:59.380 --> 00:01:03.020 and then you see something that related to a previous video, 00:01:03.020 --> 00:01:04.910 then you can go and open the previous video 00:01:04.910 --> 00:01:07.143 and go to a specific part of the video. 00:01:08.320 --> 00:01:09.800 Then there are a couple of controls 00:01:09.800 --> 00:01:12.020 that you can use while you watch. 00:01:12.020 --> 00:01:15.300 One important control is here, skipping back 10 seconds. 00:01:15.300 --> 00:01:17.790 So if you miss something, you get distracted, 00:01:17.790 --> 00:01:19.610 you want to go back 30 seconds, 00:01:19.610 --> 00:01:24.610 you click on that three times, the video rewinds 30 seconds. 00:01:24.800 --> 00:01:28.770 Then another important control is the playback and speed up. 00:01:28.770 --> 00:01:32.310 Dial here, if you think that I'm speaking too fast 00:01:32.310 --> 00:01:34.350 you can slow down the video. 00:01:34.350 --> 00:01:38.090 If you are bored, because I'm so slow, you can speed it up. 00:01:38.090 --> 00:01:39.800 When I review my own videos, 00:01:39.800 --> 00:01:42.453 I typically do that with twice the speed 00:01:42.453 --> 00:01:45.480 and if I watch the video lectures by others, 00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:50.210 I quite often switch the playback speed to about 1.5 00:01:50.210 --> 00:01:53.750 or if a person is speaking quickly, then 1.25. 00:01:53.750 --> 00:01:57.340 I think it's more interesting when it's a bit faster 00:01:57.340 --> 00:01:59.470 than just the normal playback speed. 00:01:59.470 --> 00:02:00.920 But I don't know what works for you. 00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:02.810 Try out the different playback speeds 00:02:02.810 --> 00:02:04.900 to see what is the best. 00:02:04.900 --> 00:02:07.740 Then we have the full screen toggle here. 00:02:07.740 --> 00:02:09.420 If you don't like the small window, 00:02:09.420 --> 00:02:11.810 you can make it full screen using the toggle 00:02:11.810 --> 00:02:14.502 on this corner of the player. 00:02:14.502 --> 00:02:16.870 Now the interacting the part. 00:02:16.870 --> 00:02:21.870 When you play the video, at some point the video stops. 00:02:21.950 --> 00:02:24.000 The video stops and then you have 00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:27.580 this icon that shows this click symbol. 00:02:27.580 --> 00:02:31.220 When you click on the symbol then you will get a task. 00:02:31.220 --> 00:02:33.930 If you don't want to do the task right away 00:02:33.930 --> 00:02:36.850 it is completely okay to just press the play button 00:02:36.850 --> 00:02:38.610 and skip over the task. 00:02:38.610 --> 00:02:41.460 For example, you could watch the video first fully 00:02:41.460 --> 00:02:43.330 and then go back and do the tasks. 00:02:43.330 --> 00:02:46.260 It does not matter in which order you do the tasks 00:02:46.260 --> 00:02:49.090 but typically the task is about something 00:02:49.090 --> 00:02:51.210 that was just said in the video. 00:02:51.210 --> 00:02:53.730 For example, in this video I talked about 00:02:53.730 --> 00:02:55.650 the inductive or deductive reasoning 00:02:55.650 --> 00:03:00.210 or inductive and deductive logic using the Socrates example 00:03:00.210 --> 00:03:03.060 that is very commonly used in basic textbooks. 00:03:03.060 --> 00:03:06.950 Then the task is a question about this, this Socrates. 00:03:06.950 --> 00:03:11.730 These tasks are indicated on the timeline by these circles. 00:03:11.730 --> 00:03:14.290 When the circle is hollow then it indicates 00:03:14.290 --> 00:03:17.190 that that's a task that you have not completed yet 00:03:17.190 --> 00:03:20.450 and a solid circle means that you have completed a task 00:03:20.450 --> 00:03:22.270 and gotten the score for it. 00:03:22.270 --> 00:03:26.840 Here's an example of a task, what the task would look like. 00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:29.950 So this is simply a tick or the correct answers. 00:03:29.950 --> 00:03:31.670 It can be multiple choice questions 00:03:31.670 --> 00:03:33.510 and there are also other kinds of tasks. 00:03:33.510 --> 00:03:36.640 Some require you to do a little bit of calculations 00:03:36.640 --> 00:03:39.530 and so on but they're fairly easy to understand 00:03:39.530 --> 00:03:42.973 what is the point because the user interface is very simple. 00:03:43.950 --> 00:03:47.137 Once you have completed all the tasks in the video 00:03:47.137 --> 00:03:49.550 and you want the video to be scored, 00:03:49.550 --> 00:03:51.570 you need to go to the submit screen. 00:03:51.570 --> 00:03:53.200 And to get to the submit screen 00:03:53.200 --> 00:03:56.240 you click on this star icon here. 00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:58.010 The star icon turns green 00:03:58.010 --> 00:04:00.580 if you have completed some questions 00:04:00.580 --> 00:04:02.010 and that indicates that you can actually 00:04:02.010 --> 00:04:03.010 submit your answers. 00:04:03.850 --> 00:04:06.130 Before you submit anything 00:04:06.130 --> 00:04:09.490 you need to check that you have actually completed 00:04:09.490 --> 00:04:12.140 all the tasks that you want to complete. 00:04:12.140 --> 00:04:14.770 It's not a requirement to complete all tasks 00:04:14.770 --> 00:04:16.180 for every video. 00:04:16.180 --> 00:04:19.530 So if you think that some of them are too challenging, 00:04:19.530 --> 00:04:21.950 it's okay to skip some of them. 00:04:21.950 --> 00:04:24.280 If you want to get a five from the course, 00:04:24.280 --> 00:04:28.420 then you should try every task through your best ability. 00:04:28.420 --> 00:04:31.030 So check that they are actually on. 00:04:31.030 --> 00:04:34.390 Completed all the tasks all the circles will be solid. 00:04:34.390 --> 00:04:37.600 I have not completed that one here and that one here 00:04:37.600 --> 00:04:41.770 so I'm missing three tasks and only one task is listed here 00:04:41.770 --> 00:04:43.143 which is a solid symbol here. 00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:47.120 Then review your score, what you got 00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:49.830 and then click on the Submit Answers. 00:04:49.830 --> 00:04:54.144 The Submit Answers button here moves your grades 00:04:54.144 --> 00:04:57.320 to Moodle grade book from the video player. 00:04:57.320 --> 00:05:00.830 So that is the time when your grades are recorded. 00:05:00.830 --> 00:05:03.820 So it's kind of like you are doing an exam 00:05:03.820 --> 00:05:07.330 and it's okay to go back and forth, rethink the answers 00:05:07.330 --> 00:05:10.310 but once you submit then everything is final. 00:05:10.310 --> 00:05:12.480 So you can only submit once. 00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:15.665 So don't submit before you are ready. 00:05:15.665 --> 00:05:18.640 After you have submitted your answers, 00:05:18.640 --> 00:05:20.680 you can check how you did 00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:22.850 by going through the Moodle grade book 00:05:22.850 --> 00:05:25.460 and the grade book contains the correct answers, 00:05:25.460 --> 00:05:27.320 it contains your answers 00:05:27.320 --> 00:05:32.300 and you can see basically how your grade was calculated 00:05:32.300 --> 00:05:35.230 based on what you filled in the interactive videos. 00:05:35.230 --> 00:05:38.510 The interactive videos are a small part of the course grade 00:05:38.510 --> 00:05:41.713 and they contribute to the overall participation grade.
