Creating videos to learn languages

I believe students can learn better when they are active in their learning process. One of the ways of doing so is motivating students to create videos in the target language. These videos are related to language functions and can be easily made using cell phones. Even though minor language mistakes may occur, I still think creating videos is a great way to learn a language!

You can watch some videos my students created:
