My experience with YouTube

Getting onto YouTube was not difficult as I already had an account from 2011. The problem I had was being able to upload a video. This could not be done without creating a channel which the system did not seem to want to do. Having finally managed to create the necessary channel and uploading the required video that I produced, doing the other required tasks and checks as to the quality of the product were simple actions.

TeacherTube, when I had a short look at it, seemed to be a good source of material for those in the teaching fraternity. The site appears to include a good range of topics, all of which seem to include videos and data related to a wide range of educational standards. There is a bias of material dealing with the USA system but I did see enough Australian items to make the site of some value to anyone within our school systems as well.

I spent some time looking for an appropriate existing video within YouTube to evaluate. I chose a video which was inline with my final presentation as this seemed to be the best choice and provided some additional information to add to my collection of things to include in the presentation.






The process to embed the video into the Blog is made simple by the function within Youtube to copy the Embedding code and the use of the HTML editor in Blogger to insert this code into the post page.
