Micro course is the abbreviation of "micro video online course", also known as "micro course". It is a situational online video course resource that supports multiple learning methods and is designed and developed based on micro-teaching videos as the main carrier and targeting knowledge points of a certain subject, such as key points, difficulties, doubts, test points, etc., or teaching links.

How to make a micro-course video:

Determine the topic: Determining the topic is the first step and starting point for making a micro-course. Scientific topic selection is the premise and foundation for the success of the micro-course. The selection of knowledge points is generally an important and difficult point in a class, and the knowledge points must be detailed enough and can be explained thoroughly within 5-10 minutes. Writing lesson plans: Compile teaching designs and lesson plans based on topic selection and teaching requirements. Produce courseware: prepare teaching materials and practice tests, combine micro-course knowledge points, make full use of multimedia elements such as graphics, shapes, sounds, images, and animations to produce corresponding courseware, coordinate with the teaching of difficult-to-understand knowledge points, and assist teachers in on-site teaching.

Video recording: Micro video is the core of micro class. For recording micro class, you can choose computer screen software recording, camera tool recording, or classroom recording. For recording with camera tools and shooting with video camera tools, you can choose any equipment with recording functions such as mobile phones, digital cameras, DV cameras, and video cameras. If using screen recording software, adjust the camera distance to ensure at least the entire head is visible. During the video post-processing process, it is necessary to ensure clear picture quality, stable image, clear sound (no noise), and synchronization of sound and picture subtitles. During the entire teaching process, teachers should pay due attention to the camera and make eye contact with the camera or video camera. Especially when using screen recording, you should use mouse clicks and drags to coordinate with the explanation, and use the brush function appropriately. The explanations of knowledge points, topics, etc. should not follow the script, and should be expressed with your own opinions. Post-production: Edit, beautify and save the recorded video, including dividing and removing the blank parts of the beginning and end of the video, and adding background music to the beginning and end of the video, etc. Finally, generate and export MP4 or FLV high-definition video format settings to ensure that the video screen is not deformed after exporting.

When making micro-courses, attention should be paid to the following aspects: Try to control the time of micro-courses within 10 minutes; when writing micro-course content based on teaching design ideas, the content should be refined; micro-courses should focus on content, text, pictures, sounds, etc. All aspects must be accurate; when explaining the micro course, the language should be easy to understand, explain the profound things in a simple way, and be detailed; if courseware is used in the explanation, the ppt should be as concise and beautiful as possible; the video quality should be clear, and medium shots, close shots, and close-ups should be used. For small scenes, use fixed lenses to ensure video quality.
