Students studying to become music teachers at the University of Tasmania are expected to use music to reach their students, but the traditional assessment consisting of an argumentative essay and sequence-planned lessons didn’t provide a way to evaluate this goal. Today, University of Tasmania instructors use EchoVideo to record students incorporating music into their lesson plans, bridging the gap between what they are expected to know and what they’re tested on.
Nearly every university student has a smartphone these days, so why not use them to enhance the educational experience? The University of Tasmania allows students to submit video assignments captured on EchoVideo and their mobile device of choice to promote equity.
Filming music lessons gives University of Tasmania students practical experience with one of the most important aspects of teaching music, promoting engagement by connecting video assignments with their future professional responsibilities.
Whereas traditional assessments are often completed and forgotten about, video assessments remain in a secure network so students and instructors at the University of Tasmania can always refer back to them. If a student struggles to maintain eye contact during presentations or fails to connect the material to the curriculum, the evidence is readily available.
