Analysis of Video named “QUADRATIC EQUATION GHOST” made by Mohd Junaid




 Please click here to see the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0dEHrt4yt0
1.   Accuracy   : The content is accurate but the there are few spelling mistakes. ( i.e. Quadertic Eqution -> Quadratic Equation)

2.   Clarity         :    Images used are not very clear.
                         Audio of the speaker is recoded with noise
                         Video has good clarity.
3.   Continuity: Continuity is breaking due to use of software to create the video from slides. It seems that it is not made by mobile or camera.

4.   Background Music: Background music is so loud that the audio of the speaker is not clearly audible.


5.   Interest      : The topic is presented in very interesting style with the concept of ghost as story telling which catches the
                     Attention of students very easily.

6.   Motivation:  This video is very much motivating for the teachers because once the traditional teacher will see this he will try to teach 
                        mathematics innovatively and in a different style rather than rote methods widely used all over the world.

7.   Age Group:  This video is not appropriate for any age group due to lack of content and concept.

8.   Reliability: You cannot only rely on this video to learn about the quadratic equation.

9.   Technical Faults: This video is made with the help of power point presentation and on all ppt’s it is written “To be continued” which make no sense to the viewer. Also there is some                               noise while recording.

10.            Time Duration:  Time duration is 4 min and 43 second which is a short duration to teach the concept.

11.            Conclusion:    The start of the video shows that it will cover all the aspects of the quadratic equation but it only gives an example.
 The first look of the video shows a page on which all the terms related to quadratic equation are shown but at the end we are with nothing left.
Nowhere in the video it is shown that how to solve a quadratic equation.
There is nothing told about the types of solutions we can get after solving these kind of equations.
Even though there is nothing mentioned about the formula to find the roots and about the types of roots such as complex or real roots.
 This video will not help in Understanding the concept a bit.
So I will rate it 1 out of 5 only which is for the creativity of the video in the start.

12.            Recommendations: There is a need of adding some concepts in it. We need to give more different types of examples in different context so that
Students can easily understand and differentiate between different types of roots.
Extra caution should be taken while recording the voices, make sure you are recording in a silent, quiet place.
Selection of background music is also a big issue, after the selection of appropriate music a keen eye and ear is needed to look on its intensity, so that it does not slow down the speaker voice.
Also it is clearly visible that the video is not made with the help of camera because the continuity is off course missing.
