Abstract—In recent years, the development of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) had a considerable impact on the teaching-learning process, both in terms of quantity and quality. Despite the appearance of many innovative teaching resources, video remains the preferred teaching tool for teachers and learners. Currently, this resource medium is widely used in face-to-face, hybrid and distance learning courses due to its numerous advantages in promoting active learning and motivating learners. For this reason, several platforms such as TelmidTice offer free access to educational video clips for learners of all levels and subjects in secondary school in Morocco. This study aims to evaluate the video sequences designed by the Ministry of National Education, Reschool and Sports, and made available online on the official platform of the Ministry called TelmidTice. The analysis concerned a sample of educational videos composed of 10 videos selected among those delivering life and earth science courses. For this purpose, a grid was developed. It comprised several criteria designed for the analysis of the various pedagogical, didactic, visual, and auditory aspects of the educational videos. Findings showed that the majority of the videos analyzed do not meet the different pedagogical and didactic criteria. This also applies to the visual criteria, and the auditory criteria. Based on the results, recommendations have been formulated for the design of high-quality educational videos before being published online and made accessible to learners on distance learning platforms.
Keywords—educational videos, TelmidTice platform, distance learning, pedagogical quality, didactic quality, technical quality
