“Despite increasing popularity, the use of video in teachers' professional learning remains under-conceptualized. This practical manual unpacks the purposes video can serve and the pedagogical designs that make it a powerful tool for supporting instructional improvement.” - Francesca Forzani, Deputy Director, TeachingWorks, University of Michigan, USA. “This book provides teacher educators with important insights into how to incorporate video recordings of teaching into powerful opportunities for teacher learning. Drawing on an international set of studies, Jenset, Blikstad-Balas and their colleagues provide research-based examples of the myriad ways in which video technology can contribute to the improvement of classroom practice.” - Pam Grossman, Professor of Education, Graduate School of Education, University of Pennsylvania, USA. “We need to do everything we can to support the development, professional learning, and vision of teachers. This book provides insights and research evidence about how teachers can use video to improve practice while grounded in the real, daily interactions of teaching.” - Karen Hammerness, American Museum of Natural History, USA.
