Integrating Technology in the Second Language Classroom

Sony claims that Vegas Pro 10/11/12/13 supports most commonly-used video codecs, including the MP4 (MPEG-4). However, problems like 'Sony Vegas won't Open MP4 files' come up from time to time. For the users of camcorders like GoPro HD HERO4/HERO3/HERO2, Sony NEX-3, Sony Bloggie should be a familiar phrase. Sony Video Converter Freeware is the best software for converts almost all PC video files (support most popular video formats including AVI, IVF, DIV, DIVX, MPG, MPEG, MPE, MP4, M4V, WMV, ASF, MOV.

Digital video - Flip, SONY Bloggie

In addition to using a telephone, a webcam, a digital still camera, or a camcorder to capture video, we can create video shots easily with a dedicated digital video camera such as the SONY Bloggie.

An advantage of the Bloggie for making recordings of yourself or having students record themselves is that the camera can point in either direction. This makes it esay to adjust the subject in the video frame. In addition, the Bloggie can be set for a variety of frame sizes (640x480,1280x720, 1920x1080).

Or the the Flip.

The Flip is very simple to use, and the video quality seems to be a bit better than the SONY (see below), but with simplicity come fewer options. Both produce good sound for educational uses. However, you shouldn't expect professional quality video from either.

These cameras are both small, lightweight, and easy to use. Just point and press the red button. Their built-in USP connectors mean that no additional cables are needed, so there's nothing else to carry. Both save their files in MP4 format, but you can use free software such as Any Video Converter or Freemake Video Converter to switch to another format if needed.

For most people though, a cell phone or webcam are the most accessible tools.

The video can be edited and compressed for Internet use through other free software such as Windows Live Movie Maker or Any Video Converter. These examples are converted to MP4 format.
