Thanks for your comments Anna. I love that you said students will “Eventually” appreciate your videos. This may eventually “satisfy both”, it just some getting used to.

Great approach, “watch the video for the next class at home”, not a daunting amount of prep for students so hopefully this method brings more prepared students to class.

I wonder what these types of students really want when they said "Why can't you just lecture us in class on what's on video?" It’s a great way for them to review the lecture before exams and it’s tough to understand why they aren’t all thankful for your extra effort.

Agreed, it can be impossible to find a perfect video unless you make it yourself. A video to spark discussion is great, but teaching a process can vary. Perhaps video could be more useful in certain faculties, such as English.

I find I takes me longer to find the “perfect” video than it takes to make my own.
