I could spend hours exploring YouTube, and it lends itself to the performance/presentation classes I teach. Teacher Tube, however, probably has more truly educational applications. Also, as a performance teacher, I'm well acquainted with copyright and fair use. I wanted to embed a project I put together for September 11th this year, but while I was comfortable using it in the classroom, I wasn't comfortable with the idea of putting it on the Internet since I don't legally have rights to all of the photos and music I used. Here are two videos I found on You Tube that would be useful to show my students.
Pilobolus Dance Company - Example of Group Movement/Mime
Example of a BAD Presentation - This REALLY Happens!
I tried to access Picasa Web Albums several times, but repeatedly got an error message, so I uploaded some of my daughter's photos. She uses Picasa for photo storage and often edits her photos on Picasa. Some of her photos are also Common Use. I was sad, though, that I didn't get to try out the remix filter.
It's so lonely out here in Blogger World when no one comments on the posts you work the hardest on. Sigh.... Oh well, on with the loneliness....
