YouTube in the classroom - 3 views

  •  
    This article is long however it gives some great information about using YouTube in the classroom. It is divided up into a few chapters so not all of it needs to be consumed. In short it is a research study about how educators use the web2.0 tool YouTube. It talks about how we can integrate it in the class, features of the site, and how to use the site. It also highlights some of the problems that came up with usage during the study.

    Awesome! I love YouTube and I definitely utilize this tool A LOT in my high school English classroom. I enjoy how youtube also has the ability to focus on strictly educational materials. Visuals are so important for students to create concrete connections. Great artice!

    YouTube is my favorite video-based network. Videos are intrinsically motivating and engaging. I agree with the point in the article that the videos that are informative, humorous, current, interesting and engaging are most preferred by students, but instructors choose a video based on its instructional value, not simply due to its humorous content. The article entirely and detailly introduces the tool. Additionally, the following article is also a great material to learn YouTube. Duffy, P. (2007).

Social media as a complementary learning tool for teaching and learning: The case of yo... - 0 views

  •  
    author: George Ligon IV I recently read an article about a study on college students use of Youtube to support academic learning. According to Alexa (2015), Youtube is the third most visited website in the world (as cited by Moghavvemi, Sulaiman, Jaafar, & Kasem, 2018). The study explored students' usage and their perceptions of Youtube's effectiveness as an academic learning tool. Out of 312 respondents 71% stated they used Youtube for academic learning purposes (Moghavvemi, Sulaiman, Jaafar, & Kasem, 2018). According to Moghavvemi et al. (2018), 76% of respondents stated they used Youtube to learn how to solve problems, 77% used it to answer questions, and 83% used it to watch videos that were suggested by friends. In addition to this, Moghavvemi et al. (2018), reported 70.5% of respondents believed they learned more from watching Youtube than reading a book. Thus, the findings supported previous studies which found using videos to teach was an effective tool to enhance academic performance (Moghavvemi, Sulaiman, Jaafar, & Kasem, 2018). References Moghavvemi, S., Sulaiman, A., Jaafar, N. I., & Kasem, N. (2018, March). Social media as a complementary learning tool for teaching and learning: the case of youtube.

Adam Ruined My Research | Psychology Today - 5 views

  •  
    "Jean M Twenge Ph.D" discusses how research presented in Adam Conover's YouTube video "Millennials Don't Exist" was misrepresented and how she and Adam were later able to discuss their differing viewpoints rather than bash each other on social media as many would have.

    These two articles are great. She linked to another article in there "How do we know the millennial generation exists? Look at the data" that made me appreciate more how they study generational differences- they compare the results of surveys given to 18 year olds of different years. That does sound like a much more powerful way to measure generational differences. One of the examples was the change in opinion of same sex marriages between 18 year olds in 1976 and today, which made a giant leap in approval. I'm curious what a survey of those now 61 year olds feel about the same topic- if their approval also raised, while it would show a generational difference of opinion at a certain age, it might show a closer agreement between generations on certain topics in the here and now. I wonder how those 18 year olds in 1976 compared to people 43 years older then them, too! I liked her final optimistic take on discussing differing viewpoints. At the same time, I don't necessarily agree with her that all speakers (certainly some of the ones who were banned from speaking at universities) should be given a platform. While discussion is always good, it needs to be honest and faithful; I don't believe that some people are interested in discussion, they just want to win and prove themselves right.
  •  
    I wish more people could debate that way! I agree that not everyone wants to discuss- some just want to argue and be heard!
  •  
    Thanks for sharing! Twenge has had to defend a lot of her literature on generational studies. I read her iGen book before and the criticism she's received on that topic as well. Very interesting!

(73) Millennials Don't Exist! Adam Conover at Deep Shift - YouTube - 5 views

  •  
    Adam Conover, comedian, discusses the dangers of stereotyping generations. We can't describe all millennials because they are the most diverse people to date. He claims that history shows that older people always talk down to practices of the younger people... it is a trend that has been around for years. Our view of generations reflects our own prejudice and opinions as our lens that we see the world.
  •  
    I always love Adam Conover's videos. This was great. I think his commentary on generational views of technology. It relates with my article about rethinking how we study "screen time". I think educators can easily fall into generational stereotypes when targeting learners. Great find!
  •  
    Honestly don't know how no one laughed at that "baby boomer" joke but this was such a great video. Such an interesting point to note that we label this whole generation as one, but they truly are the most diverse when it comes to everything from background, culture, interests, etc! Thanks for sharing!

    The creator of Pinterest discusses the apps rise in popularity. It's interesting to hear how bloggers helped to make Pinterest as well known as it is. He also discusses his choice to not make use of the press. -Peter Marti

What is ontology? Introduction to the word and the concept - YouTube - 1 views

  •  
    While reading an article this week, I was stuck on trying to grasp what Ontology was. After looking at several search results, images, and videos, this is the one that has helped the most - maybe all the rest I saw now makes sense seeing this?
  •  
    I was confused at first, too, because although I am familiar with this concept in philosophy, it didn't seem to fit what was being described in the articles. This video was helpful-thank you!

Using Diigo in the Classroom - YouTube - 2 views

  •  
    Thanks for sharing this video! It was a helpful walk-through of how to use Diigo.
  •  
    This is great! Thank you ~
  •  
    This video laid out a great explanation of how using this platform can be helpful. I am already envisioning the possibility of using it in my Media Center. Theoretically, I would like to see all of our students through their Social Studies classes. I think it would be very cool to use this site during initial media center presentations to allow students to compile resources they can easily return to. I think it will be especially helpful during science and history fair. Students will have a simple way to compile and return to their resources when putting together their projects and annotated bibs.

Catch up in a hangout - Google+ - 1 views

  •  
    Hangouts let you video chat with up to 9 people, face-to-face-to-face. You can watch YouTube videos, wear pirate hats, or even doodle together.
  •  
    I did not write the original comment. Google hangouts is a new communication tool that is free. It is like Facetime except that you can have up to 9 people on your call. It is suppose to be better then Skype because there is a screen sharing tool that you can use during the call. I just discovered this last night! I plan on trying it out when my hubby leaves for South Africa in a couple of weeks.
  •  
    It is better than Skype, great quality and an interactive screen. I love it, and use it a lot to communicate with my family (I wrote a post about that!).

A Google a Day in the classroom [video] - 4 views

  •  
    A Google a Day provides daily trivia, and can be a fun way to teach your students important online research skills.
  •  
    Hi Fabrizio, I just tried the Google a Day and I like the concept very much. However, unless I was doing something wrong, I found it cumbersome to do the research and get back to the original question. In addition, when I tried to access Google Map, which was needed for answering today's question, it said it would not support it in the Google a Day window. So I opend GM up in another window. Did you experience something similiar? With that being said, I think the idea is great, especially since they give you tips and hints at how to find the answer. I think researching tips and exercises are very important, even for graduate students. You can never get enough practice in researching topics. Thanks for sharing this, I really liked it.
  •  
    When I type a research on the search box it opens a pop-up window with the data, so I have two pages open, the A Google a Day one and the search one. I think it works pretty well on Chrome, I didn't have any problem, but I haven't tried it with other browsers. A Google a Day is fun and challenging; however, I don't think you can learn too much from your answers, they are too general. Maybe in the future there will be a way to customize it and create your own challenges, it would be really interesting to use with our students/learners.
