Slightly off topic -- I thought I'd take a look at some of the stats and the extent that screen movies are used by WikiEducator learners. Personally as a learner I rarely use screen movies. I prefer reading the text and getting on with trying to implement. However, when looking at the stats -- these screen movies are very popular with our audience. Consider for example that: * 58 % of new account holders on WikiEducator have never created a wiki account before; and * 61% classify themselves as beginners when it comes to wiki editing. Looking at the pages views of two of the first relevant Newbie Tutorials (i.e. Creating an account and Editing basics): * 43% of the pages views expressed as a proportion of the home page views for the Creating an account tutorial have visited the screen movie page; * 33% of the pages views expressed as a proportion of the home page views for the tutorial on Editing Basics have visited the screen movie page. Clearly the screen movies are being used by a large proportion of WikiEducators. Further support that we all learn in different ways. That said, we all learn in spite of teaching <smile>.
