Description

In my Physics class, I include links of video solutions recorded by an undergraduate teaching assistant to weekly assignments. These videos serve as comprehensive guides for students as they tackle comparable homework problems.
The videos have garnered positive feedback from students who appreciate the step-by-step explanations. The recorded solutions enable students to learn at their own pace, revisit challenging concepts, and build a solid understanding of the material without resorting to online homework solvers.
During my talk, I will outline the process of choosing problems and preparing solutions. I will show examples of a homework set with video help included. I will discuss the current pros and cons to this process as well as my future goals to expand the video library.
