Video tutorials,whether recorded or live,are important to students because they add another dimension to learning that makes a students educational experience more effective. The videos allow a classroom setting to come to life, offering diff.perspective and tools that students might not normally be able to take advantage of in their learning.
   As an Educational Technology 2 students  this is important for us because this video tutorials offers a multidimensional experience which combined the use of slides,photos, graphics,narration, music and live video all in one.
     Last January 4 2016 our group had recorded our very first video tutorial.We had decided that we're gonna do a cooking show. For the beginners like us,we choose a dish that is easy to cook,yet very delicious - the mango float


So,we have listed below how to make a mango float

Mango Float Ingredients:

  • 3 large ripe mangoes, sliced
  • 1 cup whipping cream, (chilled & whipped until doubled in size)  or  1  box (200g) Frosty    Whip Cream Powder, whipped according to package
  • 1 (250ml) nestle all-purpose cream, chilled
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 pack graham crackers

Mango Float preparations Instructions:

  • In a mixing bowl, whip the cream until light and double in size. Add in chilled all-purpose cream, condensed milk, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt and mix until well combine. At this point you can taste test your cream and adjust the sweetness according to your taste.
  • Divide the whipped cream mixture into 3 parts, so you can have a 3-layer mango float.
  • To assemble the mango float, first you have to arrange graham crackers in your baking dish. Lay the crackers flat and even until you cover the whole bottom of the pan. Use scissors or sharp knife to trim the crackers, if needed.
  • Pour 1 part of the cream mixture at the top of crackers and spread evenly.
  • Top with mango slices and add reserve scraped mangoes.
  • Place another layer of graham crackers and repeat process until you have 3 layers, ending with cream and sliced mangoes on top. Don’t throw extra graham crumbs, crushed it finely & dust it on top of your mango float.
