Didactic Do's & Don'ts (and Homage to Monty Python)

Whether it's for MOOCs, a flipped classroom or personnel training, more and more people are using online video as a teaching tool. You've certainly seen some amazing videos as well some horrible ones.. What makes or breaks an explanation video? I don't pretend to know all the do's and don'ts of the trade, but I can share a few from my list. And I thought I would share these "à la Monty Python"... Can you catch all the Pythonesque references?

Many thanks to Commission scolaire de la Seigneurie-des-Mille-Îles for helping me finish this video. Their support is greatly appreciated.
