Video, an efficient training support for your learners

Here’s the advantages of video for your online training :

1. Facilitate the memorization of your students

Nowadays, students are more and more passionate about online video classes with the new technology era. In fact, videos are composed of images and sounds. By listening to your voice synchronized with images explaining your course, memorization will be easier and your learners will enjoy making a learning improvement.

To give you an idea of your video classes, here’s an example :

What’s more, video is a touchy subject, and there are chances for it to be more appreciated by your learners. For instance, according to Forbes, people only retain 95% of a message that appears on a video, whereas only 10% memorize information through a text (2).

Video is the original learning support that your learners want to need to assimilate your training.

2. A suitable format for all supports

The advantages of video are that it is an adaptable format for all kinds of media supports : laptop, mobile phone, and tablet.

This can be advantageous for your learners that wish to watch your online training videos on their mobile phone when they are for instance in public transport. Other students will prefer to watch your videos on their laptop by night and some on their tablet when they are resting in their garden.

In all cases, video is certainly the most suitable and available format for sharing your knowledge with your learners.

3. Video, an ideal flexibility for your learners

Video rhymes with flexibility ! It is a format that is also suitable for the schedule of your students.

Maybe some of your learners will not be able to come to your face-to-face classes for personal reasons (taking care of your child, working hours not compatible with your schedule class etc…).

What’s more, your learners will watch your online videos classes whenever they want, and they will watch and re-watch your videos several times for better understanding of your online classes, and thus training themselves without any stress.

4. An interactive efficient method with your audience

Communication with your students is important so that you can get to know their opinion about your videos or asking important questions related to your online training.

Even if mails are still the most used option for communicating, and answering the questions of your students, video is an efficient interactive solution.

To give you an idea, our private hosting video platform offers you an interactive system for your videos : students can interact with you by leaving comments on your video and reacting to it through “likes”. You can also reply to comments, which will create a communication link between you and your students.

You have the possibility to communicate with your students by leaving them a video message. For instance, to announce a webinar that you want to organize online, so that you can introduce a worldwide known speaker linked with the domain of your class such as an author, a footballer or a head cook etc…

5. Online videos are time saving
