Abstract :
Many Saudi pre-medical students have difficulty understanding lectures in specialized courses such as biology, biochemistry, anatomy and physiology. To help students fill the gaps in their background knowledge, class lectures can be supplemented by online videos in medical courses. This paper aims to show the advantages of integrating online videos, give samples of websites where online medical videos can be downloaded, describe criteria for selecting videos, show how online videos can be integrated in medical courses, outline skills that can be developed through supplementary online videos, types of tasks that can be designed based on the online videos selected, and present a scheme for phases of teaching and learning with online videos. In the end, it will describe the process of evaluation and assessment of instruction with online videos.
