Thing 21

The use of online video in my classroom would be fun. My students always come up to me telling me about videos that I have to see on YouTube. Although what they want me to see might not be educational it certainly tells me that my students are using YouTube on a regular basis. There are educational things on YouTube and TeacherTube that can be used. This online video sharing has opened up a new world of showing a video in the classroom. I look forward to the opportunity to use something from YouTube or TeacherTube in the classroom.

There are risks with everything that you do on the internet. The one thing that I have learned through the course of this class is that it is ok to use the internet and that as long as you monitor students those risks can be minimal.

This first video from TeacherTube shows the use of video in the classroom. This is a class project that was done.




This video is about using Blogs in the classroom. Something we have been learning through this 23 Things course.
