YouTube

[|Youtube] is a web based video site that allows you to watch videos and even upload your own videos to the site.
====**Pros Youtube is probably the most infamous and popular video viewing website to date. It has a large variety of videos that can be viewed. Some of the videos are educational and some aren't. Youtube can be a valuable source of information if you are searching for the right thing. On youtube you can look up tutorials that are at times very handy. And you can find educational videos on youtube that are on various topics. I just typed in "George Washington" in the youtube search engine and I found a great educational video on him, which you can view at the bottom of this page. **==== ====**Cons** But Youtube does obviously have some flaws. Since there are videos about pretty much everything you can think of theres some bad videos out there. Some videos on youtube can be downright disturbing and you just got to watch what your searching for. And its really easy to get off track while youtube. When I use youtube I often find myself watching "The Dramatic Squirrel" instead of looking for educational videos. And its really hard to use youtube as a educational tool when there are so many funny videos on youtube.====

**Educational Uses for Students and Teachers**
====As I stated before, youtube can be very informative site if use correctly. Youtube can give you videos on various educational topics varying from math to history. But there is some downfalls of **Youtube** like some of the things that people put on there shouldn't be on there because of what the video has in it, it is inappropriate for that kind of thing the content in it is bad but [|Youtube] still lets the stuff still be on there. The majority of the people that watch that kind of stuff are young adults and teenagers====

====[|YouTube in the Classroom] this is where I got some of my information about what [|Youtube] was good for and how it is being used for a good purpose. But some schools decided to block it because of some of the things that are on it and so when teachers are trying to teach something and they need to find a video clip and [|Youtube] is blocked where else are they gonna do because they can't find a video clip so that is why all the schools should have YouTube.====

====[|Brenda's Blog] this is where I found some of my information about **Youtube .**Teachers could use [|Youtube] for a class video like in ecology she uses Youtube for videos about the earth or something like that. I didn't have any troubles withYoutube because it is an easy thing to do anybody can do it even the teachers can use this website. Teachers can use youtube to provide visual tool to educate students. You can find various things on youtube to teach the students with.Teachers can also use youtube to make education fun by providing videos instead of notes.====
