I couldn't help but think of myself as a highschool student, sitting in a classroom watching a video recording. And my next thought was me SLEEPING in class.
I thought checking homework while playing a video was a great idea. However, if the whole class was presented this way it would be impractical. I firmly believe that in addition to teaching mathematics, my role as a teacher is to inspire my students. Students need to be encouraged. I don't see how a video can provide prompt encouragement to the students.
Also, I believe that social interaction is key to learning and this can not be demonstrated through a video.

Katie I agree I think that implementing technology at the appropiate time is so important when teaching, but to have it for the whole class period may be a little extreme. Other than the amount of time it would take to make a video every class while checking the homework I think that is a great idea.
