| Summary: | This work examined the use of self-made YouTube videos by lecturers in teaching Mathematics. A few studies have emphasized the importance of bringing YouTube in the classroom. A lecturer may use YouTube videos available on Internet or create his own videos as teaching materials. The purpose of this work is to study students' perceptions and preferences between these two options. A sample of 213 first year students completed a survey on their perceptions of the use of YouTube videos that were created by their lecturers. The study also included students' perceptions on the preferred length of video lectures of topics in Mathematics. The results confirmed that YouTube is commonly used by students and showed that videos created by their lecturers are preferred to videos found on Internet. The study suggested the use of videos with length less than 15 minutes for each topic in Mathematics. © 2014 IEEE. |
