  5. Students can benefit from technology so much while they are studying. One kind of technology is video which is very beneficial in students' performance inside class. One benefit is that video gives students an image which may help them. For example, if students have a story, they can watch it as a movie if it is possible. By this way, students will get visual information about this story before reading. Also, there is another benefit which is making the classroom interesting. Video makes students have entertaining time besides studying. Passed by Salim Al- Mamari

  6. In my view of point, video is necessary to meet the instructional goals and to arouse students’ motivation. The importance of using video inside classrooms is shown in the followings:
     Creating and preparing video can be an expensive and time-consuming endeavor.
     There are instances in which video is the best or the only option you have for effectively illustrating your course content or for getting students engaged in course materials.
     Reproduce and/or model "authentic" experience, including verbal and nonverbal communication
     Allow students to "travel" to inaccessible places
     Illustrate dynamic processes and compress or expand time
