Abstract :
This research examined the effects of a process of digital video editing used to create a multimedia portfolio on the quality of teacher candidates´ critical reflections. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of three groups: control, experimental-reflection, and experimental-reflection with multimedia production. The difference between the control group and the experimental groups indicate that digital video editing does have an impact on teacher candidate´s ability to reflect.
