YT Differentiation

Session Description: We know that not every student learns the same thing the same way at the same time. What if you had a stockpile of short videos that reinforced specific content, vocabulary, or processes that you could point students to when they need that “just in time” re-teaching or review?

Objectives for this session are as follows:

Learn search strategies for finding already created educational content.
Screencast short quick videos of your own.
Curate, organize and share content with students.

Elevator Pitch:

What if you had a stockpile of short videos that reinforced specific content, vocabulary, or processes that you could point students to when they need that “just in time” re-teaching or review?

Make a list:

What concepts are you continually repeating?
What are some common misconceptions in your class that need clarifying?
What is the vocabulary that is essential for your course that some students struggle with?
What do you get tired of repeating?
