Let's Navigate My Computer Mediated Communication Course: A YouTube Tour


When my students begin their new course,  I always want to ensure that they will have the best experience possible. To help them prepare for their course, I always craft the course template on Blackboard or Canvas, upload it, and then I create a YouTube video focused on how to navigate the course.

This has been very helpful for students. I definitely recommend Youtube as a teaching tool for our higher education students. Check out this video for my Computer Mediated Communication course!

The Importance of Creating Reusable Videos for Online Classes


Sometimes, you have to make your assignments plain for students. Who am I kidding, I need things to be stated plainly as well. So, I am very excited to integrate YouTube into my classes. I use YouTube for explaining assignments in online classes and also for navigating the syllabus. 


Here's an example of how I make ONE video to answer MULTIPLE questions from MULTIPLE semesters. These videos save time and also help me archive the approaches that I use each semester. I am an older professor now,  right?

Here's are some examples from my Student Affairs and Higher Education course!

The question was: "How Can I Submit My Assignments from the Student Affairs in Texas Newsletter"?

Here's my answer:



The question was: "How Can I Complete the Becoming an Expert Activity?"

Here's my answer:


Student Affairs and Student Services is constantly evolving to reflect industry trends. Especially business industry trends. Check out the Student Affairs in Texas newsletter published by the Graduate Students in the Educational Leadership program at Tarleton State University.

I hope you enjoy! Please let me know if you have any questions about recording, sound, or uploading. I will be happy to help!
