I realize these will not be very useful out of the box, but considering how a number of Stanford classes were successfully ported to long-distance format (with interactive exercises, quizzes, etc), this might be a good first step in the refinement process.
I think analyzing your performance via video is underrated outside of sports.
I recently started drafting a post around this exact premise! Any interest in collaborating?
This is an interesting concept - I look forward to the post. Some quick notes: In my experience, people instinctively balk at being recorded, or listening/watching a recording of themselves. I think there's something unnerving about it, and in some cases probably indicates low self-confidence. Perhaps something to do with mirror-neurons as well?
I'm not bothered by being recorded (provided I know who is going to see the video), but I feel somewhat uncomfortable watching the video afterwards.
If it matters, we've been filming our Saturday test sessions for our own use (watching the videotapes to learn how to teach, after setting a webcam up across the room), but that's quite different than making usable video for you-tube.
I can't contribute much other than the raw observation :(. I've seen this done by a guy from Dale Carnegie who was teaching presentation skills, and noticed some benefit from watching a couple of presentations I recorded myself. I imagine the benefit would be multiplied if I was going to give this presentation again and again, like someone who is planning a curriculum ^^^.
Looking forward to your post!
