  • Andrea -

    I've been reviewing your video and have some comments. I have enjoyed knowing that any subject is available. I agree that You Tube works for multi-cultural education. I also agree that YouTube enhances the learning of 21st Century learners. I agree that YouTube saves time. -Alan

  • Wow! I am very impressed. I liked that you broke it down into 10 main topics. I agree with everything you have said, especially #10. I love all free things. I also like the comment about the 21st century. I think we do our kids a disservice if we don't utilize the technologies that are available. We shouldn't just let them view video, but also teach them how to use the technology in an appropriate and useful manner.

  • You need to blink faster. Looks like you are blinking in slow motion. P.S. While you're sitting there could I order an Italian Ice?????

  • Breaking your information into "chunks" really made it easier to process. I liked your images introducing each point. You seemed at ease with being in front of the camera and enthusiastic about sharing your ideas.

  • I thought your vlog was one of the best in the class. It was well thought out and the production was far superior then many. I also like the Bach Music. My last name is Eisenach and Bach is from Eisenach Germany. We were there last summer visiting his home and my children got to play some of the old instruments. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

  • hot for teacher

  • All that music you were enjoying this morning was from Youtube. I use it ALL the time.

    I'm honored to know you now that you're famous! (29 views!)

  • All that music you were enjoying today was from Youtube--I use it in my music classes ALL the time.

    Yaaaaay Shurgster!

  • You did a great job with this Vlog. The list of reasons for using YouTube are right on target. Thanks for the overlay to visually cue each of the reasons when you were discussing it. This really added to the production. I agree with you about the online storage. It frees us from storage media and hardware needed to play each type of media. I am glad to hear that your district unblocked YouTube.
