    This is a straightforward article we often see about 'uses in the classroom'. Professionally, there are many useful examples about how to use Skype: Connecting with international classrooms, guest lecturers, interviews, and other examples. The idea of a guest lecturer is appealing. I have used it before to connect my students with classrooms around the world.

  • 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.

  • 3.  Additional Research - Teams are to become the class experts on their assigned "Hot Spot."  Each team must use at least three credible sources.  If the school subscribes to data bases through the library, students can use those during the research process. Students are to attribute sources using their title, name and credentials.  Students must be able to  show that the information gathered is valid and credible.  Students cite sources using MLA style.

    I have always lectured about the Cold War but this would be a much more interesting way for students to learn about it, teach each other about it, comment and do analysis.
