This post was very resourceful and helpful for me as a future educator. I have noticed that in many educational settings, YouTube is definitely blocked, especially at the secondary educational levels and lower. I like the idea of embedding videos, as well as the idea of creating a channel, that makes it easier to access one's own videos for the classroom. YouTube for the schools, is also very resourceful for us as future educators because utilizing technology to better help students understand the material, will only make our job a little easier because the method of information delivery is not just set on one way. This creates the ability for students who learn visually or through song or whatever else, to learn. martavious stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05533735005440652634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6326053344094419375.post-41782701169662386592013-10-28T00:10:42.743-04:002013-10-28T00:10:42.743-04:00My name is Emma Boren, I am in EDM 310 at South Al...My name is Emma Boren, I am in EDM 310 at South Alabama. As a future teacher, I found this post to be very helpful. YouTube has a ton of great videos, but as you stated, it is risky because there are also so many inappropriate videos as well. Embedding videos, or playlists, into a class blog or on a class website is a great way to share these videos with the kids, but to also ensure that they are only seeing what needs to be seen!<br />Thank you for sharing this with us! It will be very helpful to many people I am sure!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15728965779060352092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6326053344094419375.post-91545581361159280412013-09-06T20:16:10.669-04:002013-09-06T20:16:10.669-04:00I must say this post was much insightful as well a... I must say this post was much insightful as well as easy to read and understand. I had absolutely no idea that any of these settings on YouTube were available and I certainly did not know about all the ways to incorporate a safe, fun, and easy YouTube to a classroom environment. What teacher wouldn't want to use this information? Besides this post being insightful, it is 100% relevant and needed! <br /><br /> With today's technologically advances, teachers need to take advantage of this new technology, manipulate it, and diversify it to fit their classroom needs. YouTube has been brushed aside by the education world because of it's easy access to videos that elementary students have no business watching. What was great about some of the topics discussed in this post is that teachers can customize their YouTube to their unique individual classroom! The video also was very insightful! I am very excited about the new things I learned and I am DEFINITELY going to use the information to my advantage...Thank you!!Lauren Bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00852414324290768437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6326053344094419375.post-28019070311424138512013-07-24T23:22:22.347-04:002013-07-24T23:22:22.347-04:00This is useful information.

However, I note (as an inveterate proofreader) that educators should know the difference between "channel" (a vehicle for communication) and "chanel" (a perfume company.) Can you please clean this up? It occurs a number of times in your article above. Thanks in advance!David H. Finkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07817925960778922467noreply@blogger.com
