Using Videos in Your Class

There are so many wonderful video resources available to us these days. When you are using these, it is helpful to remember that if we send our students to videos during class time, there is a band width problem; that is there is too much information coming from the internet to our little niche at school so since videos tend to clog up the "information highway" they should be previewed and downloaded whenever possible (that will improve the quality as well). That being said, this is a site that will tell you some of the best ways to search and give you video sources that you may not know about. If you need to download, see your technology coordinator to help you find out how. Here is the link.
One of my listservs had this link that lets you cut any YouTube video to use just the part you want. Check it out as well. Hope you will find it helpful.

Awesome! I can really use this in the classroom. Some videos are long or take detours and with limited time, this could be a great help! Thank you.
