Evaluation designEvaluation of videos for high-school usage:

• Before a usage session:

- contextual interviews with teachers from 2 high-schools and the pedagogy expert

- analytic evaluation with 4 evaluators

• During a usage session:

- observer’s observations for engagement

• After a usage session:

- contextual interviews with teachers

- survey for students from high-schools

pedagogy methodologypremises design methodology evaluation and future

Evaluation results• Before a usage session:

- contextual interviews: generally positive; a teacher got enthusiast and spontaneously decided to change programme in the middle of the school year

- analytic evaluation: generally positive, albeit with issues of inconsistency for representation of learners’ tasks

• During/after a usage session: results still under analysis but in general students were engaged in terms of time, interest and concentration
