Guidelines for Video Research in Education by Derry (Editor)

I've been recently made aware of a little brochure by Sharon J. Derry (Editor), named "Guidelines for Video Research in Education- Recommendations from an Expert Panel."

While I haven't read it in its entirety yet, it seems like an awesome practitioner's guide for video research that is based on the same literature foundations that we use, Erickson, Goodwin, Jordan & Henderson, and so on. Even the practical implementation of recording video in a classroom seems to be very similar to what we are doing. And the technical recommendations are much more up to date (and more specific) than in the Jordan & Henderson paper.

In General, I think this brochure is a worthwhile read for all of us, providing a lot of information from "what equipment to get" to "how to use video in research about learning."
