  • Set Your Default YouTube Upload Channel

    For over a year now, YouTube has permitted users to create multiple channels with a single Google account. In the past, to manage more than one YouTube channel, users had to create separate Google accounts. Now YouTube channels can even be shared with other Google account users, similar to the way Google Docs are shared. The screenshot…

  • Workflow: Moderate Student Email-Posted Videos to YouTube

    Today was nothing short of a revelation in our elementary STEM classroom. Twelve of my 300+ fourth and fifth graders published videos directly to our classroom YouTube channel from their iPads during school hours, which is an all-time record. Most of these were very short, and all were created in our classroom Maker Studio. Some…

  • iPad Classroom Workflow: Publishing Student Videos to YouTube

    It’s not the “norm” today but it should be: Every K-12 classroom teacher needs access to a YouTube channel to publish student work as well as their own videos. The past two years I’ve used a classroom YouTube channel for my elementary STEM class. Video is a very powerful medium, and Google provides teachers via…

  • Student iPad Radio Shows Shared on YouTube

    I am a big fan of students recording audio to “show what they know with media.” Video projects can also be great, but there are more moving parts to video projects. Greater complexity means not only more technical challenges, but also more possibilities for distraction. Video projects also take longer. Audio projects can be quick…

  • Add Questions to YouTube Videos for Class Discussions

    Last night during our Google Hangout about volunteer opportunities for the 2015 K-12 Online Conference, Karen Fasimpaur (@kfasimpaur) mentioned the possibility of using Vialogues or other websites to embed discussions about K-12 Online Conference presentation videos into the actual videos. Several other options were brought up by participants in our live TitanPad-powered chat. I hadn’t heard…

  • Paper Slide Video PD Reflections From Wichita

    I recently had an opportunity to share some professional development workshops with teachers in Wichita, Kansas. This was a repeated, 2.5 hour BYOD workshop on “Mapping Media to the Common Core,” and I focused primarily on interactive writing (with TodaysMeet) as well as quick-edit videos using YouTube Capture and paper-slide videos. I have a variety of…

  • Teaching iPad Videography From 3800 Miles Away

    Friday I had an opportunity to share a videoconference about iPad Videography from my home in Oklahoma City with a group of about 15 homeschoolers in Nenana, Alaska, which is almost 4000 miles away.    by  Wesley Fryer  It blows my mind that it’s possible to teach and share like this. I posted the recorded audio from…

  • Create an iOS iMovie Video Collage with YouTube Contributions

    I’m almost finished with my pre-conference keynote video for the 2014 K-12 Online Conference, which kicks off on October 14th. I’ve used my iPhone for all the video clips, but I’m also including several videos from other people I’ve asked to contribute ideas. I’m THRILLED this is working as I hoped it would. Here is…
