Video of the week - The power of simple words
Video of the week - The power of simple words

This American video illustrates how less can mean more. Long, fancy words designed to show off your intelligence and vocabulary are all very well, but they aren't always the best words. In this short, playful video Terin Izil explains why simple, punchy language is often the clearest way to convey a message.


BGfL will be featuring a video each week which can expand the teaching and learning experience.

Video is one of the most powerful tools for teaching and for learning.

Why? Because visual learning offers an alternative learning style that engages the user instantly and powerfully, allowing effective communication of complex information.

We aim to offer a mixed medley of videos to suit all tastes, ranging from reflective, inspirational  TED talks speeches to practical ‘how to’ practical demos.

If you have a video you wish to recommend, then please let us know.
