This week in my grad class, I learned a lot more about how to make the most of my YouTube account. Up until recently, YouTube had been blocked at my school. Now that I am able to use it in my classroom, I want to make sure that I'm using it effectively with my students.
When I was exploring Richard Byrne's blog, I came across a post titled "4 Tips for Using YouTube Videos in Your Classroom."
His first tip is very much, in my opinion, a common sense warning: ALWAYS PREVIEW A VIDEO BEFORE SHOWING IT TO YOUR CLASS. The other tips, however, were brand new things that I had not known about before this week.
1. You can remove YouTube distractions by using ViewPure.
2. You can show just a portion of a video by using TubeChop.
3. You can create and save playlists of videos.
