WINTERFEST: Video-Stimulated Recall: A Tool to Increase Student Self-Efficacy

ON DEMAND WEBINAR

Presented by Ann Bartman, Ed.D., OTD, OTR/L, CPAM

0.5 Contact Hours

Description:

Student performance is impacted by a variety of factors – their physical or mental state, their preparation for an assignment, and their previous experiences with content or situations. Bandura’s (1977) self-efficacy theory states that there are four sources of efficacy beliefs (i.e. physiological states, verbal persuasion, role modeling, mastery experiences) that influence one’s belief in their ability to be successful. Educators can influence student’s self-efficacy through their teaching pedagogy. Video-stimulated recall (VSR) has been utilized as a technique to increase students’ belief in their ability to be successful. Simply put, video-recording a student performing a task (e.g. presentation, competency, or skill), providing feedback to the student on camera, and then asking the student to watch and reflect on their performance can improve their self-efficacy for future similar tasks. The combination of watching themselves, hearing verbal feedback from their instructor, and reflecting on their performance allows for a comprehensive understanding of their ability. This session will provide background on Bandura’s (1977) theory of self-efficacy and the literature surrounding video-stimulated recall (Ananza et al., 2023; Grimaldi et al., 2018). The presenter will share two examples of implementation of VSR in her own teaching (with supporting data) and engage the audience in brainstorming how this technology-enhanced pedagogical technique can be implemented in their own courses.

Objectives:

• Participants will be able to identify four sources of efficacy beliefs based on Bandura’s (1977) self-efficacy theory.
• Participants will understand the impact of video-stimulated recall on students’ self-efficacy beliefs.
• Participants will be able to apply video-stimulated recall as a pedagogical practice in their own courses.
