Utilization of Student-Created Videos for Laboratory Activities in Physics

Abstract

The shift from a traditional to an online mode of learning due to COVID-19 pandemic led the researchers to conceptualize and create videos for students who have no access to a laboratory facility. This research assessed the effect of student-created videos to the academic performance of fifty-three (53) Bachelor of Secondary Education (BSEd) students in Physics 1 (Electromagnetism) and 4 (Waves and Optics). The student-created videos served as the intervention of this research. Laboratory worksheets and survey tools were used for data gathering. The paired samples T-Test was utilized to determine the significant difference in the test scores before and after the intervention. Results showed that academic performance in Physics improved when coupled with student-created videos. Laboratory videos helped enhance the quality of the learning process. Therefore, this may be adopted in science subjects with laboratory component.
