Discussing digital technology in teaching and learning settings, Video Enhanced Observation for Language Teaching explains how it can be used to tag, analyze and evaluate talk and use it as the basis for reflection and professional development.
Guiding readers through these processes, this book focusses on the Video Enhanced Observation (VEO) system. Beginning with a discussion of how it was designed and built by language teaching professionals, contributors use VEO to illustrate the advantages and opportunities of digital observation technologies for teachers, explaining its use and how it can be adapted it to their own professional practice. With detailed case studies tracing how teachers in many different settings have used this system for recording, evaluating and reflecting on lessons, this book provides clear research evidence of the development of many education professionals from around the world.
Written by experts in applied linguistics, education and educational technology, Video Enhanced Observation for Language Teaching explains the principles and procedures involved with using digital observation technologies in teaching, enabling other professionals to integrate these technologies into their own environment and practice.

Reviews / Votes
This book is undeniably beneficial for different groups of readers who show interest in CALL in general and VEO in particular ... The book provides the framework and evidence-based analysis of the case studies to foster teacher reflection and professional development in using VEO to explore classroom talk and interaction. * CALL-EJ: Computer-Assisted Language Learning Electronic Journal * This volume is a timely contribution to the fields of teacher education, educational technology, and applied linguistics. The book successfully shows the uniqueness of each context and the importance of digitalization in teacher education based on the curriculum and the needs of both teachers and learners. * Language Learning & Technology * Video Enhanced Observation has proven invaluable to our preservice teachers. VEO tag sessions give preservice teachers a common language to discuss practice. It empowers them to experiment with different ways of approaching instruction. Most importantly, VEO makes learning to teach a public, collaborative endeavor that happens in a community of practice. * Stephanie Mahfood, Ph.D, Associate Professor, Department of Teacher Education, Webster University, USA * The most important quality of a good teacher is to be a reflective one. I've been using VEO for years in my own research as well as to train pre-service teachers. This book is absolutely timely and will be an invaluable resource for teacher educators and researchers alike. * Kelly Arispe, Associate Professor of Spanish, Boise State University, USA *More details
