YouTube is great. I've already discovered some cartoon masterpieces, and have benefitted from video demonstrations of some tricky IT manoevres. Having enjoyed and - more importantly - remembered what I have learned via video demonstrations and discussions for a distance learning course, I can understand how YouTube clips could be used to bring information and ideas alive for learners.. and for anyone who is just curious about something. Their visual content makes them more immediately appealing than podcasts, and easier to dip into when using a visual medium in the first place. In my opinion.For example, How to read a Gothic cathedral Facade. Help. How would you get this clip to show up here in an appealingly clickable rectangle?
Update: I've got it, thanks to Laura. Enjoy.

What a fantastic video! To post it in here, go to its page and look to the right of the YouTube screen where there's a little box called 'embed'. If you click in the box, you get a drop down menu, where you can choose things like the border colour and how big you want it to be. Then just copy the text and paste it into your Blogger window. I tried both the normal and the html updating boxesand it should work fine for both of them :)
ReplyDeleteMarvellous. Thanks+ for the Timely Top Tip. I found that this worked, only if I copied the text into Wordpad first. But I got there in the end..
