Some university teachers prefer to record their lectures before classes In this way students will be familiar with the lecture in advance and teachers help students practice in classes while they are watching or listening lectures Do you think it is an

Teaching strategy, the founding stone of education, has been valued and even triggered a heated discussion about boosting students’ in-class productivity. In other people’s view, teachers can first let students get familiar with the recorded lecture and then help them practice the content in the video in class. From my perspective, it is beneficial because it contributes to students’ interest and efficiency.

Getting familiar with the course subject matter beforehand is conducive because it helps students trigger their interest. Specifically, early lectures are usually replete with introductory and general concepts, which are accessible for students to comprehend. After understanding these straightforward topics, students may find some of them interesting. On the contrary, if students have to learn the topics in the class from scratch, they may have no time to scrutinize every concept, not to mention arousing their enthusiasm. Moreover, studying lectures ahead of time is beneficial for students to explore more. In detail, they can freely search for relevant materials on the Internet, which will further their comprehension or even stimulate them to review more. On the other hand, in class, students’ thoughts may be dominated by teachers’ ideas and they could hardly investigate and expore intriguing topics.

What should be equally discussed is that early recorded lectures, compared with on-site learning, contribute to students’ efficiency in the class by facilitating them to reduce the time they spend confusing over the questions they come up against. To begin with, when reseaching a new scope, students will confront with enormous puzzles. If they are provided with early recorded lectures, they can be exposed to these challengings in advance, so they can have more time to survey and deeply analyze problems. Thus, what perplexes them may be tackled early, and students could spent less time on such difficulties in class. By contrast, if students are not equipped with these courses, they must devote much time to figuring out the solutions to the conundrums in class. In addition, being provided with such lectures, students could be more concentrated on the classes. In detail, baffled by unsolved questions, students will be more focused on the class to avoid missing the related topics or potential answers.

Lastly, learning with lectures recorded by teachers could foster students’ independent quality. Under this scenario, students need to learn by themselves instead of being supervised by professors. That means they must comprehend subject matters, review materials, and work out puzzles independently, sharpening their self-learning skills. Take me as an example. In the Computer Network course, the professor provided online courses to familiarize us with the topics in advance. Even though I had multiple questions during this process, I could not ask the professor immediately. Thus, I have to google and solve them by myself. After the semester, my independent problem-solving skills were bolstered, and I could master comprehensive subjects independently in a short time.

To conclude, only by providing students with early recorded lectures can they reap the maximum benefits in the class.
