A Comparison Of Video Formats For Online Teaching

Abstract

The use of video to deliver content to students online has become increasingly popular.  However, educators are often plagued with the question of which format to use to deliver asynchronous video material.  Whether it is a College or University committing to a common video format or an individual instructor selecting the method that works best for his or her course, this research presents a comparison of various video formats that can be applied to online education and provides guidance in which one to select.
