Thing 7
Overall, I like youtube. It is userfriendly and easy to search. I am not sure I spend enough time with it to come up with a lot of dislikes. Like anything else it will take a little time to weed through some of the videos and pick ones that are most useful for education. I did find a couple of vides that I though would be useful for education. When I search study skills I found some interesting videos. One video in particular could be a good way to introduce a lesson on study skills. . .It is hard to make a lesson on study skills exciting, and this maybe one way to hook the students into the lesson. Also, there were some good videos on school counseling that I think would be beneficial to a parent program. I haven't used Youtube in the classroom, but I do not know if it is restricted everywhere?

We do have access to Youtube at school if we are logged onto the computer -- the students don't. It can be a very useful tool -- we used a lot of the book trailers for our summer reading presentations and the kids loved it.
