The Quality Live Lesson Framework is a reflection tool that supports the improvement of real-time online lesson delivery through video analysis. Designed by distance education teachers at Finigan SDE for distance education, the framework guides teachers to observe and evaluate their own recorded lessons across three key domains: Body Language, Voice, and Cognitive Load.
Each domain includes five features, and each feature is broken down into observable elements, ordered from least to most effective practice. Teachers watch their recorded lesson and self-assess which element best represents their practice within each feature.
The framework encourages teachers to make small, deliberate adjustments to improve the quality of their live lessons, supporting greater student engagement and improved learning outcomes.
