Interactive Video-Enhanced Tutorials (IVET)

Interactive Video-Enhanced Tutorials are online activities that combine videos of real instructors who guide students through an expert-like problem-solving process with a series of required questions that force students to interact with the material.

Interactive Video Vignettes for Biology

This project is developing a set of high-quality online educational materials (Modules for INteractive Teaching, or MINTs) that promote active, hands-on science learning to aid in teaching of core concepts for introductory biology at the college level. The priming activities in MINTs, Interactive Video Vignettes (IVVs), incorporate evidence-based teaching strategies to address known areas of confusion for entering students.

Interactive Video Vignettes for Physics (IVV)

Interactive Video Vignettes (IVVs) are designed as ungraded web-based assignments for introductory physics students. They combine the convenience of online video coupled with video analysis as well as the interactivity of an individual tutorial. Each online vignette addresses a learning difficulty identified by PER.

LivePhoto Physics

This is a collection of short videos, often just 20 to 30 frames in length, that can be extremely useful in teaching physics and other sciences. Not still photographs, but too short to be considered movies, these "live photos" are designed for analysis in a computer. Positions of objects in the video frame can be measured by pointing a mouse and clicking. The data can be graphed, analyzed in spreadsheets, compared to theoretical models, and even used to display vectors or points superimposed on the original video.

Interactive Online Lectures (IOL)

This was an unfunded project to quickly meet an immediate need for online material during the covid-19 pandemic. Each lecture consists of several short (5 to 8 minute) video lecture segments interspersed with required multiple-choice "clicker questions" designed to help students understand the lecture content.
