What do you think about teaching mathematics or science courses with the visual aids and videos? Pros, cons? Any tips for improvement? What else do you use in your teaching?

I strongly believe that both mathematics and science concepts become more easily understandable if the presentation is made more interactive, which can include audio visual aids, intermittent question and answer sessions during lectures, doubt clearing sessions and submission and evaluation of student assignments.
However, the foremost requirement on part of the instructor should be to ensure adequate depth and clarity of the presentation that can initiate the thinking process and ignite curiosity towards the material, in the students.

Agreed! i think it is more like how one tailor the lectures to visual aids? I have witnessed many horror stories.
I think the audio visual aids should be synchronised with the lecture material itself, as a part of it, for example while teaching point group symmetry or crystallographic symmetry the ball and stick models must be used for demonstration of the symmetry elements in conjunction with presentation of the theoretical material.
