“…The results on the second and third YouTubes indicated that the directions, though, were more concrete and understandable after the candidates saw a model of techniques that, although they may have discussed them within the course, had yet to become "real" to the candidates. As Graves et al (2009) note, assessing an actual classroom performance of teaching is a complex and challenging task, and although the requirements of the microteaching lesson were made clear, the relatively lower performance of the two chemistry candidates suggest that the modeling of a chemistry inquiry exemplar needs to be developed. The more abstract nature of chemistry instruction does suggest that more work needs to be done in creating exemplar YouTubes, possibly using some of the drawing techniques that have been suggested as being effective in supporting chemistry learning (Nakhleh, 2002).…”

This study of action research, authored by three colleagues teaching the same teacher-education methods course but from different content areas, involves teacher-candidates' use of self-recorded limited-access YouTube videos to make their microteachings accessible to the authors, each of whom was teaching candidates of her or his content expertise in an online-only section of the course. Analysis of the candidates' video-recorded microteachings and of their comments in online course postings found that the use of videos were helpful in fostering candidates' readiness for student-centered teaching with effective methods for their respective content areas. The authors/instructors also found that the data from the videos enriched their assessments of such readiness.

The perception of knowledge as consumer goods appeared with the development of private education and reflects a marketing or consumer needs approach. The consumer-needs approach sees advantages in adapting higher education to the needs of the consumer. This article examines whether the behavioral science curriculum (scope, and content) in the private college is based on the approach of knowledge as consumer goods. In addition, what is the level of satisfaction expressed by the alumni of the course, i.e. those who completed the curriculum? The study used a multi-method approach, combining textual analysis of archived documents and an online questionnaire survey of 250 alumni. The results: the scope and contents of the curriculum were only partially affected by this approach. Nonetheless, the graduates were very satisfied with the curriculum's contribution to their personal and professional skills and occupations.
