Spark Lively Discussions

Why not take your students to the source?

http://youtu.be/DceHEBGVfj4

Save Video You Find

Playlists are YouTube's way of allowing you to organize videos on the site.

A playlist is a series of videos you put together - they don't have to be

videos you uploaded, and you get to choose the order.

Great playlists include videos that...

• Hook your students into a lesson.

• Provide real-world context for lessons.

• Help provide cultural relevance for your students.

• Provide remediation for concepts not yet mastered.

• Provide alternative viewpoints.

• Provide visual context (chemical reactions, primary source videos).

• Review previously taught content.

Infinity

Archive Your Work

Capture and save projects and discussions so you can refer back to

them year after year. This will also help you save time as you can

assign old videos to your new students.

Record critical parts of your lesson so you can review how you taught

that lesson in previous years.

Pixar YouTube

When absent students ask

what they missed, send them

a link to the video and they'll

never fall behind. You can

even customize who sees

your videos by adjusting the

privacy settings.

Extension Opportunities

Give students the option to dig

deeper into a subject by creating a

playlist of videos related to that

concept.

By creating playlists of relevant

videos you allow students to pursue

their interests without wasting their

time searching for information (or

finding potentially unsuitable

content).

Hundreds of great playlists like the

one you see on the left can be

found at YouTube.com/teachers

Elections

Personalize Your Classroom

Videos can help supplement

in-class teaching for struggling

students.

Students can review them at

home so you're not forced to

teach exclusively to the middle

50%.

This video highlights the importance

of meeting the personalized learning

needs of students.

Review for Exams

This video reviews what was taught

in class, making it easy for students

to go back and review before exams.

Use a classroom presentation

to create quick video

flashcards for your students.

Flip Your Classroom

Jon Bergmann and Aaron Sams created a new way to approach instruction

called flipped teaching. In a "flipped" classroom the students watch videos at

home for the introduction to new material or review of content, and do all the

hands-on practice in the classroom with the teacher.
