Thing 12 and 13: Discovering and using YouTube

There are so many videos on YouTube. I did a search for some educational videos and found this one by, Taylor Mali:



There are many ways to use YouTube in the classroom; however you must closely monitor students if you chose to let them use it. I would recommend the teacher using it more than the students. Teachers can search for short videos to introduce a book, topic or a video on how to do a certain task. YouTube has pretty much all the videos you can think of.

  1. I like the video that you uploaded! I agree that teachers should monitor students when using YouTube, because it is a public site. Also I agree with you that YouTube videos could be used to introduce a unit or concept because students' curiosity will increase when they can see/hear the information in a video.
