YouTube



I would use this YouTube clip for a Science unit, the purpose of the clip would be to demonstrate how to make slime as opposed to having the teacher explain and demonstrate. Youtube clips are entertaining, visual and engaging, however, the over use of clips can bore students. I have experienced this at university as the same clips are played over again in different classes. Another pit fall in using video clips is the usefulness of the whole video, while some parts may be applicable other parts may divert from the purpose or intended outcomes.
