Last week Isabel Murillo Wilstermann (University of Kiel) and Mareike Oesterle (Karlsruhe University of Education) introduced the VEO App at the MTTEP conference at Bergen University College. In the context of integrating mobile technologies into the preparation or training of professionals in education, various possibilities of and perspectives on using the VEO App in different educational settings were discussed in an workshop (“The use of mobile technologies for teacher training purposes: challenges, risks and learning potential of using Video Enhanced Observation (VEO)”). Many thanks to the MTTEP project team for very interesting key note speakers, workshops and discussion groups, as well as establishing such a great platform of networking and exchanging ideas regarding the use of mobile technologies in schools as well as in Higher Education!

Using VEO in different classroom settings

In May, we were able to film a storytelling lesson in Karlsruhe to help us create new tag-sets for different settings in the EFL classroom. Furthermore, the lesson was observed by different professions (nursery school teacher and primary school teacher) which gave us a good opportunity to use and discuss VEO in an interdisciplinary context.
