YouTube is a video sharing website.
Individuals, organizations and businesses upload content to the website. This
tool allows educators to display content in the classroom. YouTube can be used
to show a clip of a movie that is being discussed or also used to show students
how to solve a math problem showing them to students. I believe that YouTube
does open the doors to allowing student to think critically since it can assist
in helping student to develop their thoughts. YouTube is extremely beneficial to my work life. I am able to refer a student to a specific school
and they are able to watch the school's welcome video right in my classroom.
This is extremely helpful since the majority of my students are unable to
travel and visit colleges. I think it is an awesome! Here is a link to provide
an example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mckf0NlTsLU
Another tool that I find helpful is
Remind 101. Remind 101 is a safe alternative way for
educator to text students and parents. It provides an opportunity for an
individual to contact a student without providing personal information, such as
a cell phone number. View a demo here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCwqPzBD79U
