Thing # 20 You, Too, Can YouTube

As teachers we have to learn to deal with many different children with many different problems. What we miss out on are ways to keep up to date on what research is being done in the field. I have been looking at students with dyscalculia. This is similar to dyslexia but with arithmetic. There were other videos that I thought would be great but they lasted ten minutes. And knowing most people would not want to sit thought all that I chose a shorter one. The best part about learning to do this task is that it could be a great way to give assignment on a snow day. Post a video and ask the students to write a paper about what were the key objectives of the video. It would also be a great way to post a video that I will be teaching in my class and let the parents pre-screen the video.
