Hi readers, today I wanted to share a little bit more educational videos and how impactful it will be for the coming generation. As you know, each student (learner) has their own learning styles & habits. For those who are visual learners like myself, I’m able to absorb and learn by visual context (especially if it’s moving).
那在这里我们得先了解自己的学习方式。例如我比较喜欢视觉学习。
How did I find that out about myself? I realize that during my school years, I was someone who loved to watch movies, documentaries that were played in school. Furthermore, I spend lots of time watching youtube channels in order to best comprehend material that I previously could not understand in words. This was my learning style.
The advancement of today’s Internet has certainly helped a lot as video channels started to pop up by different content providers from National Geographic, TED and many many more (see below for examples). The realization that content providers are actually able to gain more insights by collecting data from people rather than developing new content goes to show that our world is certainly becoming more user-centric. This means that in the future, we'll definitely be utilizing videos not just as a one way tool, rather it's a feedback loop to tell us what students are interested in and how we can cater content for them...curious thought?
这里有些youtube视频渠道你们作为教育者可以使用到的（在这块你们有可能需要一些外国人的支持。。。）
Here’s some interesting sites and brief description for you to gain new content:
TED-ED
About Channel- TED-Ed’s commitment to creating lessons worth sharing is an extension of TED’s mission of spreading great ideas. Within TED-Ed’s growing library of TED-Ed animations, you will find carefully curated educational videos, many of which represent collaborations between talented educators and animators nominated through the TED-Ed website.
最近TED也出了一些自己的教育视频，讲解得蛮清楚的。我会建议看一下，以及把它作为你的话题介绍。

Kurzgesagt
About Channel- Videos, explaining things. Like evolution, time, space, global energy or our existence in this strange universe. Kurzgesagt is a team of designers, journalists and musicians who want to make science look beautiful. Because it is beautiful.
这个渠道比较适合年轻阶段，由于视觉方面比较多彩。我觉得讲解很清晰以及你能直接挂上科目。

CrashCourse
About Channel- Tons of awesome courses in one awesome channel! Nicole Sweeney teaches you sociology, Carrie Anne Philbin teaches you computer science, Craig Benzine teaches film history, and Mike Rugnetta is teaching mythology! Check out the playlists for past courses in physics, philosophy, games, economics, U.S. government and politics, astronomy, anatomy & physiology, world history, biology, literature, eco.
这一个教育渠道会有很多深度的讲解以及好多不同话题。创始者是一名鼎鼎有名的学霸，可是视频讲解会很多，所以需要你们自己判断时间剪辑。适合大一点的孩子。

Vox
About Channel- We live in a world of too much information and too little context. Too much noise and too little insight. And so Vox's journalists candidly shepherd audiences through politics and policy, business and pop culture, food, science, and everything else that matters.
我觉得这个视频渠道最有意思了，它并有好多跨科话题也有很多现实的知识在。虽然它比较像记录片，学生们都很喜欢这视频的视觉。

那我们怎么应用视频在我们的授课呢？在这方面我有些自己的想法。。。
Lastly, how would you use them if you were educating students? This kind of seeps into blended learning or the flipped classroom model as most of these videos are self explanatory as they provide students with general knowledge about the topics and facts at hand. However, an educator should dig deeper into the subject matter by providing students with interactive assignments and team based approaches to learn the content more fluently. An example of how to do this in a classroom is by setting up station rotation models whereby students are divided into stations, one focused on video watching and questions, one focused on small group discussions and one on projects. If you decide that time is too tight, assign the videos as their mandatory take-home class and design project assignments in class where students have to complete tasks or in depth projects (using videos as a reference source) to complete them.
