Reframing Holocaust Testimony
Institutions that have collected video testimonies from the few remaining Holocaust survivors are grappling with how to continue their mission to educate and commemorate. Noah Shenker calls attention to the ways that audiovisual testimonies of the Holocaust have been mediated by the institutional histories and practices of their respective archives. Shenker argues that testimonies are shaped not only by the encounter between interviewer and interviewee, but also by technical practices and the testimony process. He analyzes the ways in which interview questions, the framing of the camera, and curatorial and programming preferences impact how Holocaust testimony is molded, distributed, and received.

Video in Social Science Research
In this digital age the use of video in social science research has become commonplace. As sophistication has increased along with usability, as spiralling staff costs push out direct observation, the researchers training today are grasping video as a means of coming to terms with the continued pressure to produce accessible research. However, the 'fit' of technology with research is far from simple.
Ideally placed to offer guidance to developing researchers, this new text draws together the theoretical, methodological and practical issues of effectively using video across the social sciences. This book concentrates on how researchers can benefit from the use of video in their own research, whether it is:
Video as representation
Video as an aid to reflection
Video that generates participation
Video, voice and articulation, or
Video that acts as a provocation.
In turn each of these five central functions is discussed in relation to different stages of the research process, consisting of:
Research design
Fieldwork and data collection
Analysis of data and findings
Dissemination.
As a practical research tool this book shows how, why and when video should be used, representing an invaluable guide for postgraduate and doctoral students conducting research in the social sciences, as well as any researchers, academics or professionals interested in developing technologically informed research.

Using Video to Support Teacher Reflection and Development in ELT
Currently, there are many research articles across a wide array of teacher education journals that present promising practices in video as a tool in teacher learning, but no practitioner-friendly text that organizes a variety of approaches for application in the field. This book fills that gap by helping educators to greatly expand their repertoire and confidence in introducing, designing, implementing, and assessing video- based professional development. The authors focus on the variety of ways in which video can support and encourage reflection, increase awareness, foster collaboration, share practice, provide a tool for analysis, aid in materials production, and establish online communities of practice.
Video allows more possibilities for context-sensitive noticing, editing, sharing, repackaging, and tagging, especially in combination with screen-capture software, and there is an increasing array of tools that can be harnessed to support teacher learning and reflection. These can help to make aspects of classrooms, methodology and learning more concrete and visible. Across the chapters, the book draws on a growing community of educators using video in a wide range of approaches and features some of their experiences and views through data and vignettes. In doing so, this text acts as a conduit for innovative and effective video and visual media use in language teacher education.
