Students will practice their observational skills and identify individual hazards and use this to influence their dynamic operational risk assessment.<\/li>\n<li>Whilst on field trips with her students, Susan Jones (Lecturer &#8211; Geographical Information Systems) produced a series of <a href=\"https:\/\/eyespy360.vr-360-tour.com\/e\/DB8BYwJ-hgY\/e\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">360\u00b0 photographs<\/a> of locations visited along the Northwest Coastline of scientific interest.\u00a0 For Sue, who is keen to start using immersive content on her modules, this was an exciting time to (metaphorically speaking), tentatively dip a toe into the immersive water. Initial thoughts suggest there is value in producing content that students can use for revision, that gives them the means to study and explore areas of interest and identify points of reference.<\/li>\n<li>The University Library, as part of its introduction to staff and students, has produced a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/360-library\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">360\u00b0 tour.<\/a> People can take a virtual look around the different spaces and facilities before actually visiting in person.

However, if you wish to target your audience, for instance within a module, by hosting your videos on YouTube, you are sending your audience to a third party site. This means that YouTube videos will be more visible within Google, compared to the videos embedded on your modules.<\/p>\n<p>Unwanted content, clutter can be distracting for some, particularly those with a Specific Learning Difficulty (SpLD). YouTube\u2019s auto play function means students may view unrelated content based on their own search criteria and pattern.<\/p>\n<h2>Online option: <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vimeo<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/learningedge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/130\/2018\/05\/Vimeo_Logo.svg_.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6441\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/learningedge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/130\/2018\/05\/Vimeo_Logo.svg_-300x85.png\" alt=\"Vimeo Logo\" width=\"126\" height=\"24\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Aimed at giving filmmakers a platform to present and promote their work.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike YouTube, Vimeo doesn\u2019t rely on funding from ads, preferring to offer a service which has less clutter, charging a membership fee for 500MB of space per month.
