Using videos in the classroom is a sure way to get students' attention. I found three videos and I posted the links in my blogroll. My favorite is the music video that teaches students how to conjugate Spanish -ar verbs in the present tense to a Justin Timberlake song. It would be a great video to show after teaching the new grammar point to help reinforce what was just learned.
The video about searching on Google is a great resource for students when they are assigned a project or need to do some research using the Internet. It has a lot of useful information about narrowing down your search or how to focus your search to certain websites. Many students are unaware of these features.

Nik Peachey's videos are always so useful, but I would check about using Pamela in Skype. I don't have time to check right now, but I think that the recording aspect may have changed. You may want to check that out.

Heather,
ReplyDeleteoops! Please disregard my last comment. It was meant as a reply to another student's post.
All of the videos you chose look useful. Personally, I would have preferred Billy the Bufanda with only Spanish text and not both Spanish and English, but having the English may work for some students.
