Using YouTube

YouTube is pretty awesome. You can browse videos or upload your own. The scary part of it is that you can upload ANY kind of videos.
Which is why I wouldn't use it in a classroom. I would rather look for another site, if I really wanted to post or view a video. YouTube would be risky because of all the different videos available to students. The other video site that we saw, www.voicethread.com , seems better and safer than YouTube, but might still present some challenges. 
Overall, if I wanted to present a video to the classroom, I think that I would just download it straight from a resource and put it on a CD or usb key.
