    In math class, we all taught 1/0= infinity. The equation simply shows the mathematical relation between these two numbers and infinity. It shows the connection between these three. So we know its connected each other. Its is amazing that we can make formulas and equations in philosophy too.

Essay on how to use YouTube as a teaching tool | Inside Higher Ed - 2 views

  • 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.

  • 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."
