The last few years have seen a tremendous growth in videocassette usage, not only for entertainment, but also as a viable teaching method. Most homes in American now have at least one VCR. At Ozarka Vo Tech in Melbourne, AR, educators recognize the educational value of videotapes and have combined efforts to produce several quality computer-generated videotapes. With funding from projects, P189-01 A Competency-Based, Computer-Assisted, And Computer-Managed Model LPN Program, and the PI 2B061 Comprehensive Learning Lab, educators have been able to produce teacher-made videotapes to augment the different educational programs at our school. This article describes the method used, equipment needed, and general hints for improving the quality of teacher-made videotapes.
