Using Youtube Effectively





This is another addition to Technology Thursday. On Thursdays we will be highlighting a different online technology that Teachers can put to use in the classroom. You can find more articles on the Technology page.



Youtube is a great resource for teachers and can be great addition to lessons in the classroom. However, it is often poorly used.

Problems I have had in the past is not knowing how to search or determining how to pick the right video service.

And then I found Youtube-Education which I have found to be a great resource.

Just play around on it for a few minutes and see if you do not like it. The interface is clean and simple, and free of adds.

Click on the links of the subject you teach, and then you will find sub-categories for each subject. This is a much better way to find quality videos.

I hope you like this and that it will help you.
