N2 - Instructional videos have become a vital part of modern education, offering an engaging way for students to learn. They are widely used ranging from traditional courses to massive open online courses. This growing reliance has prompted researchers to explore the benefits of instructional videos for learning, leading to design guidelines for optimally designing instructional videos to foster learning outcomes. This special issue shifts the focus from theoretical design principles to practical applications of learning with instructional video, addressing a gap in current research. The six papers in this special issue examine two key aspects of instructional video learning: (1) the presence and characteristics of presented teachers, and (2) the role of supportive prompts and engagement strategies when the teacher is absent. Together, the contributions in this special issue offer new insights into video-based learning, impacting both educational practice and research.
