Abstract
Videos can be useful for teaching and learning. However, a conventional video does not allow interaction which is the key to learning. Hence, interactive video is recommended. Designing interactive video for learning requires special consideration. It must adopt the suitable learning approach and video development technology. This chapter will discuss the design of an interactive video which uses the picture-in-picture video design approach, iconic metaphor, and storytelling as a learning approach for teaching English vocabulary to Secondary 1 students in Malaysia. The interactive video uses pictures and sounds to assist students in learning vocabulary. Icons are used for symbolic representations. To make learning interesting, the storytelling approach is adopted. Students interact with the video sequence and feedback is provided to create a two ways interaction. The effectiveness of the interactive video has been tested on 50 students from two schools in Kelantan and Selangor. The pre- and posttest evaluation were conducted. Analysis showed that the use of interactive video has attracted students to use the application, and thus remain in the learning process. This has resulted in an improvement in their vocabulary mastery, thus proven that the icon-based interactive video is effective as an additional learning tool.
