Using YouTube in the Classroom

Using YouTube in classroom allows students to receive both aural and visual messages. This helps students gather information more effectively. YouTube can help students get a deeper understanding of a topic they had never experienced. The video can be used in a astronomy unit to show students the vastness of the solar system and the planets and moons relative sizes compared to Earth. It is a great introductory video to a unit as it will allow for a great number of questions and discussions.
