 Why use Youtube in Your lessons?



Channels
While Youtube is not yet available for our Google Apps accounts as it is elsewhere in the world, there is nothing stopping you from creating your own Youtube Account which will link up with a personal Gmail account either for your personal use or the department.

Channels allow you to upload and edit your own content as well as that created by your students. The first step is to create an account.

You can create an account in one of two ways. 1. Create an account with an email account [|other than one that is Google]. 2. Create an account with a gmail account.

Please watch the tutorial for the method you have selected.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Editing and Interaction
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Areas to look at:
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Enhancements
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Captions
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Annotations
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Audio
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Questions(beta)

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Watch the video below for an overview of the editing options. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">media type="youtube" key="9SwkrnfWl9A?" height="442" width="654"

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">This is one of our Pompeii/Joya videos that I have added some annotations to. Take a look. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">media type="youtube" key="Zb3E-ACSxwg" height="283" width="378"

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Sections of Videos
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Sometimes you may want to show only a segment of a YouTube video without having to fast forward through it. There are services available that will allow you to send, select and view only certain segments of a YouTube Video. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">media type="custom" key="20963368"

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">The Following websites are very useful for this and provide you with links and/or embedding code so that the selection can be easily shared.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Splicd
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">TubeChop
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">YouTubeTime

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Playlists
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Sometimes you may want a collection of videos that you can share by linking to or embedding online. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">YouTube allows you to create playlists once you have an account. An example of how I use playlists is to gather videos about the different concepts I am teaching together in one place for a project and embedding it on the project web page, providing easy access to students. This saves time and space on the page as I don't have to embed each video in a table for them to view them on my page. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Please watch the short video below.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">media type="custom" key="20965582"

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">There is a service called Dragontape online that allows you to do something similar by creating "mix tapes" from a selection of YouTube vids you provide. You need an account for this or can sign in with your Facebook Account.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Veengle is another video compilation site, which is similar to Dragontape.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Watch2Gether allows you to create a private screening room for a collection of YouTube videos, and share a link with those you want to view them with. It is free, no account required and even includes its own chat box.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Viewing Without Clutter
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Do you ever want to block out all the other things that appear around YouTube Videos? <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">If so here are a few options for you to try out. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">(Just drag the button below to your browser's bookmarks bar.) <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">by adding &rel=0 to the end of the url section of the embed code.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">More Controls
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Try embed plus to add moveable zoom, instant playback along with other options, right in the browser using an extension. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">You can select the quality fo the video, but remember that the higher the quality the greater the potential for streaming issues. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Closed captioning may be available. By clicking on the CC button and choosing settings you can alter the font size and colour of the captions.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Interactive Transcripts are available for some videos. Just click on the icon to bring up the transcript and watch the lines highlight as the video plays. You can also click on a a given line in the transcript to move to that section of the video. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">YoutubeXL provides a better way for viewing YouTube Videos on a TV or interactive whiteboard screen.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">YouTube Apps and Chrome Extensions
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">You can search the Chrome Web Store for what you are looking for. Try a few apps and extensions out. Some are better than others.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Power Searching on Youtube!
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Use Basic Boolean <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">" " to force an exact match eg: "algebra" <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">- to remove a term from the search eg: -basic <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">*. before or after a term to fill in the blanks eg:linear.* <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">+ to force a word into the search eg: +khan <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">intitle: to force a word into the title eg: intitle:matrix
