    "How can video clips embedded in multimedia presentations be used to improve learning in college courses? To answer this question, a review of the theoretical and research evidence on videos and the brain is presented first. That is followed by a description of the theory of multimedia learning as it relates to videos and a review of studies using videos over the past four decades in college courses. The results of these studies and the verbal and visual components of a video potentially provide a best fit to the characteristics of this Net Generation of students and a valid approach to tap their multiple intelligences and learning styles. Concrete guidelines are given for using available video technology in the classroom, selecting appropriate video clips for any class, and applying those clips as a systematic teaching tool. The use of clips can also attain 20 specific learning outcomes. Toward that end, 12 generic techniques with examples to integrate video clips into teaching across the college curriculum are described."

  • Look for videos of under 10 minutes in length. There are uploads of entire documentaries, movies, shows, etc. but you probably can’t devote one or more classes entirely to that source.
  • Try to find videos that do more than replace your talking head with another. The idea is to change the class pace, not replicate it.

      Need to try this for Art History.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Those who already use PowerPoint in classes can simply copy the URL of the clip selected, paste it into a slide, hit the space bar, and the link becomes "live."
  • As in the example above, take a few moments to ask for student feedback on what they saw.
  • A good listening exercise is to ask students to jot down the three major points or details they see in the video.
  • This generation of undergraduates grew up with video, but it’s no longer dazzled by it. It sees video as a ubiquitous vehicle in which information is communicated,
  • Third, don’t make the URL public unless your video is good enough to not add to the YouTube clutter, and it won’t get you into trouble. You need to own rights to any images you use before going public, but you can use most things for educational purposes as long as you don’t distribute them.

    Great article about using YouTube in the classroom, directed at college level, but has valuable information for any lecture class.

    I really liked the last comment by the writer. His kids are the same age as mine and I am thankful that mine were older before they had access to Facebook. But just the same we as educators need to know the good and the bad so we can help our students and their parents become better cyber citizens

How to use Twitter in the Classroom(video) www.twitip.com/ - 1 views

Great video on using Twitter to work in the classroom. Comments by students as well as history prof. Granted this is a college classroom but it could work in the secondary level too.

    This paper "summarize(s) theory and research on intercultural competence, paying particular attention to existing approaches and tools for its assessment. We also review examples of the assessment of intercultural competence in the specific contexts of general education and college foreign language and study abroad programs. [The authors] hope that these resources will provide a useful basis to foreign language (and other) educators as they seek to understand and improve the intercultural competencies of their students.

    Between the cat images and celebrity porn, the Internet actually manages to boast educational potential. Considerable educational potential, in fact. Even that Twitter thing the kids are into these days, with its 140-characters and its perpetual haze of pound signs, has its uses. More than 28, of course, but here's a nice little starting point
