Note to iPad Users

Apple has removed the YouTube app from devices; you have to download the Google version from the App store.

YouTube on an iPad will look quite different than when accessing it via a web browser.

Use the desktop version through the Safari browser if you would like to have the same view as screenshots in this presentation.

Curating

Use the browse and search functionality of YouTube to find channels and individual videos. Use Filter to refine your query.

Create playlists for units that you teach. Add videos to playlists ahead of class or create them on the fly.

Give links to playlists to students to supplement classroom materials

Collect videos created by students to show to parents. You can keep links private.

Flipping the Classroom

36

Flip your instruction so that students watch and listen to your lectures… for homework, and then use your precious class-time for what previously, often, was done in homework: tackling difficult problems, working in groups, researching, collaborating, crafting and creating. Classrooms become laboratories or studios, and yet content delivery is preserved. (http://www.connectedprincipals.com/archives/3367).
