A number of courses on campus require students to make videos for their homework but to our knowledge no other campus course teaches students how to make videos using video story-telling. Please enroll in this course if you are interested in learning how to make educational videos and video story-telling. This course uses online materials to learn about educational technology (edtech), educational video planning, production and editing to create a video. This course is supported by Tokyo Tech Online Educational Development Office (OEDO) and periodically may make use of its facilities. Students will make two videos during the class.
