Abstract:
In recent years, video tutorials have become an important tool to enhance active student learning. They are considered to be an effective and efficient instrument to enhance the progression of students. In 2016, the Faculty of Business and Economics of the University of Antwerp formulated a vision on technology-enhanced learning, with a strong focus on the creation and the use of both course specific and integrative video tutorials. To make the tutorials available to students throughout their entire study career, the faculty started in 2017 with the development of a faculty-wide learning channel, called Eclips. The platform offers students the opportunity to prepare for a lecture, revise learning content and fill knowledge gaps across the curriculum. Besides enhancing the pedagogical project by means of the student channel, (sub)channels were defined in 2018 for two additional target groups: the pre-students and the alumni. This enables the channel to support two other aspects of the academic mission of a faculty: the dissemination of knowledge and the interaction with the broader environment.
