Technology, videos and education
When you sit down, textbook in hand, and start to tackle paragraph after paragraph fill with complex ideas, you are devoting all your brain power to making sense of these new concepts and in so doing you start to create images in your head. This process is crucial for the understanding and further recall of knowledge, but it is also very time-consuming.
You can see how having a tool that can expedite this process and allow you to have a better understanding of the subject matter can be invaluable to both educators and students. That is where educational videos come in. Having a visual representation of complex ideas, procedures and processes can not only make learning faster, but in conjunction with other educational tactics, it can make the process so much more fun and rewarding.
We aim to revolutionize the way we use and produce videos intended for medical education at all levels. We want to create videos that follow evidence-based educational methods and that are visually appealing. Think education meets cinema.
At The Videology Company, we are very fortunate to have Alci Cruz as an active advisor, who recently taught a workshop about the use of iPads in education at the latest iPad summit in the city of Boston. He has devoted the last thirteen years to developing new and revolutionary ways to incorporate technology and visual aids to improve the learning experience of his student at Conexus, a private school that he founded and currently directs. We look forward to what we can achieve working together.
