Using MemoRekall Video Annotation App for Circus Schools. Teaching and Learning Toolkit

Auteur : Clarisse Bardiot

This teaching and learning toolkit is designed for teachers in circus schools who wish to use video annotation as part of their pedagogy. The video annotation tool used is the free and open-source web application MemoRekall (www.memorekall.com). The toolkit is the result of the work carried out within the framework of the COSMIC project (CO-creating and Sharing digital Methodologies In Circus Education), funded by the ERASMUS+ program. This project was led by the FFEC (Fédération Française des Écoles de Cirque) and FEDEC (Fédération Européenne des Écoles de Cirque Professionnelles/European Federation of Professional Circus Schools) from 2020 to 2022. Its objective is to introduce European professional circus schools to the use of digital technology and develop innovative teaching methods that complement traditional ones. The first part of the toolkit concerns teaching and learning scenarios. The design of these scenarios was the subject of various laboratories in professional circus schools. We have selected nine main scenarios developed by teachers from these schools. They are explained here in the form of templates and illustrated by capsules created with the students. For each scenario, the target audience, teaching goal, video content and annotations, different steps, and integration in the pedagogy are specified. The second part of the toolkit gives MemoRekall users tutorials for the advanced functions of MemoRekall. They can be handed out to students so that they can work in the application by themselves.
