Video-Editing for Speaking Class Materials: The Basics
The advancement of science and technology has a significant impact on the evolution of education. This is because it offers numerous advantages, such as making it easier to find learning resources, such as through media, multimedia, e-learning, mobile learning, and other platforms. The advantage of learning digitalization is that it increases students’ interest in learning activities, and teachers can manage how students choose to study, such as through video. Unfortunately, the lack of IT facilities and infrastructure controlled by educational institutions, as well as the high expenses of creating and purchasing IT infrastructure, make the use of IT in education challenging. This book therefore provides a straightforward description of how prospective teachers might supply teaching materials in the form of videos cheaply and easily. It further provides novice video creators with straightforward instructions for generating instructional movies using Kinemaster. In an effort to optimize digital resources for Indonesian education, it is intended that this book would give beneficial references for its readers.

Teaching Cooperative Learning
Winner of the 2004 Critics' Choice Award presented by the American Educational Studies Association Teacher educators from ten institutions and programs in the United States, Canada, and Germany describe the ways in which they have changed teacher preparation to more fully incorporate cooperative learning concepts. Analytical commentaries on the programs highlight the learning experience of these programs as well as underlying issues of needed reforms in teacher education. Included among best practices in education, cooperative learning may require a shift in program philosophy and disciplinary areas to meet the challenge of complex organizations and diverse student populations. As the essays in the volume demonstrate, a new alignment of field experiences to provide support for novices to implement cooperative strategies, and to receive timely and effective supervision for these attempts, may also be required.
