Video Learning as the name implies is learning from a visual platform. This style of learning includes movies, T.V., Youtube, and other streaming sites. Visual learning can help scale up the delivery of educational content. They offer the capacity to expand content, setting, and educators.

While teachers are well educated they can't be experts on all subjects when there is a gap in their own knowledge quality educational videos can help fill in gaps. With the access to video platform learns can also look to fill in their own gaps independently. With sites like Khan Academy, https://www.khanacademy.org/ and Ted Education https://ed.ted.com/ learners are taught from predominantly videos. With the capacity to share knowledge to broad audiences both learners and educators have increased access to information raising the standers for knowledge.

Video learning can also be indirect. While created for profit blockbuster movies can be used to teach. I feel movies have a place in the classroom: presenting historical moments, thematic ideas, or just as a tool bring in a different perspective. Bringing in current and trending films can also help keep a learning environment up to date. It brings in a sense of fun allowing learners to engage with content in a more creative way.

Video learning allows users to engage in a variety of settings. With mobile phones anywhere can be considered a classroom. No longer does one require a desk and chair to learn, anything from a bus to a bench can be made into a personal or group classroom. This style of learning helps to bridge the gap for those constrained by distance or time. A video can be played at any time, repeated, and paused at a learners discretion this makes it's more customizable to one's individual learning style.
