Content Quality
Rating:
Strengths:
The content about cystic fibrosis is good.
The content about cystic fibrosis is complete and appropriate.
The video is an okay approach for this content.
Concerns:
Including research evidence to support points is recommended. Citing and referencing science is essential.
There is a really long advertisement at the start of this video. It is so distracting and takes away from the video. It is done in the format of an educational video, but has commerical instead of scholarly approach. For those who use this video, consider telling students to skip the opening advertisements. And after skipping the advertisements, even more advertisements load that do not allow skipping.

Once the viewer is at the actual educational video, the information about cystic fibrosis is well explained.
The visuals with the video explanations of cystic fibrosis are clear and easy to understand.
The cystic fibrosis video increases the potential for student conceptual understanding.
The video can be used in a variety of ways to meet teaching/learning goals.
Concerns:
Including research evidence to support points is essential for an effective video.
Again, the advertisements were much longer, and more than usual--this was to the point of taking away from the educational video and impact the effectiveness.
