Video Podcasts and the WEA

The WEA http://www.wea.org.uk/ use flip cameras to collect evidence for assessment. This is a fascinating association with its roots in the cooperative movement in the 1920s. They have a very strong values that permeate all aspects of their teaching and learning.
They have been recording for assessment with flip cams for a number years. This is also used with vulnerable adults with learning difficulties. This allows authentic recording of progress in skills development. In order to keep the control of the files these, as far as I know, they are not shared online, but are distributed and stored on DVD.
