Abstract

Film recordings – video clips – have been used in the teaching and learning processes for decades. At the very beginning, the dominant role was played by television and professionally prepared recordings on portable media (e.g. LaserDiscs). With the advancement of technology and the emergence of new media, as well as the revolution in access to image and sound recording and processing devices, video clips – including amateur ones – have become the dominant path of contemporary visual communication. The paper is of an overview character and discusses examples of educational use of video in physics education in the past and at present, including TV lectures, popular science programs, dedicated video materials and educational environments, software for video measurement and evaluation of learning outcomes. Various illustrations along with literature references are given to outline potential educational pathways in making use of video clips as didactically valuable medium in teaching - learning physics.
