Thing 20

YouTube is one of my favorite sites that I frequently visit. It has so many interesting videos uploaded everyday by people all over the world. The videos are not really very organized even though it has a classification system. Also I think the privacy might be a concern for some people. The following is a clip that shows what is going on in a kinder-garden ESL class. I really enjoyed watching these adorable kids learning their first couple of English words and making short sentences. As commented by the author, he was actually trying to "entertain more than teach" since it was on Friday.


Sure I can use YouTube in my teaching. For my ESL reading class, I read a story about using your brain to control a computer, and I searched YouTube and found the video clip about this research and how it helped a real patient. Here it is!
