Have Students upload videos to your YouTube Channel!

This was a great share today from +Kern Kelley and the +Tech Sherpas weekly Hangout! 

Teachers want to assign more video projects and the collection methods tend to hamper the situation.  Consider having students email their videos directly to your (the Teacher) YouTube account!

You can create playlists of student videos and post them to your blog or LMS page.   With creative use of titles and labeling you could use it as a portfolio piece or just simple project submission!

This is where the kids are, YouTube, why not embrace it and engage them to learn in that same environment?!?



Another option is to use Google Drive.  This may be limiting since there is probably a low threshold on your Google Drive account.  Create a shared folder with the class for the students to drop their videos into.  You can then watch the videos directly from Google Drive in a built-in player very similar to YouTube! (great option for schools that block YouTube)
