Youtube Videos - Student Reflections from a Twitter Assignment

Readers,


As most of you know, I LOVE incorporating Twitter in my online and face-to-face courses. I embed the Twitter widget on my blackboard page to enable my students to see my grading updates, etc. and I interact with my students through the communication tool as well. So, it seems like the "Twitter in the Classroom" movement is catching on with other professors across the nation. 


This week, I was grading Youtube assignment submissions from students and I discovered these Twitter submissions from a fellow professor:





I love the students' comments and after watching the videos, I plan to incorporate filmed interviews in my fall courses. Youtube provides many opportunities for professors to spread ideas across the nation! We can improve our teaching practices by submitting one Youtube video, blog spot, or tweet as at a time! Contribute to your profession by sharing ideas!
