Digital-ID - home 11 Great YouTube Channels for Teachers September 11, 2014 YouTube is undoubtedly one of the most popular video hosting platforms in history. The stats released by its administration a few months ago are just mind blowing. With more than 1 billion monthly visitors and over 6 billion hours of video being watched each month (which equals almost an hour for every person on Earth) and an average of 100 hours of video uploaded every minute, YouTube sets a record of being the first audio visual media with the largest reach ever. As such, YouTube is definitely a treasure trove for us in education. It provides us with a varied and rich source of videos to use in class with students. However, searching for educational content on a platform that hosts millions of videos is akin to looking for a needle in a haystack. 1- Crash Course In this channel, teachers John and Hank Green provide some excellent video explanations and tutorials on a variety of topics related to World History, Biology, Literature, Ecology, Chemistry, and US History.
Submit Screenshots When students are doing work digitally they do not always use Google Docs. When students are using other websites to study, do research, practice, create their work can still be submitted through Google Classroom. Assuming there is not the ability to save a file and attach or a URL they can submit, students can submit screenshots of their work to Google Classroom. To take a screenshot on a Chromebook students hold down the control key and press the window switcher key. To take a screenshot on a Mac students use Command Shift 3 to do a full screenshot and Command Shift 4 to take a partial screenshot. To take a screenshot on a PC students can use the pre-installed snipping tool. If students are not on a tablet, Chrome extensions for taking a screenshot are the way to go. In Google Classroom students will see an “ADD” button on the submission page. I ask students to frequently take screenshots as they are working. Like this: Like Loading...

Reuse an Assignment The Google Classroom team is always listening to teachers and in response to feedback they have added the feature to be able to reuse a post in your stream. To add an assignment, announcement, or question to the stream click on the plus icon now located in the bottom right-hand corner. The top option is to “Reuse post.” This will allow you to choose which class you wish to pull the previously posted assignment or announcement from. You will have the option to reuse posts from classes that have been archived. You can then choose which assignment out of the stream of that class you wish to post to the current class. After choosing the assignment you wish to reuse, you will be able to edit the assignment, create additional attachments and assign to multiple classes. Being able to reuse posts is great for many reasons. I strongly feel that your lesson plans should reflect the interests and needs of the students you currently have.
