Educational Videos For My Classroom.

Math related videos are an integrated part of my teachings. Since I didn't do my high school in Canada, I always check some math videos on some specific topics to see how they approach the lesson in this part of the world. At times I have  advantage particularly in some math lesson learning in a slightly different way in my country than here because I will have a different way to approach the lesson if my students didn't understand the lesson.
When I need an inspiration and up to date Math teaching I will always go to the TED talk videos.


TED Talk
Khan Academy
-it is not the coolest video around but I usually check the Khan Academy videos a day or two before I teach a particular lesson I usually to see how they approach the lesson.

There are some interesting videos for classroom in the teaching channel. I watched a video by a teacher called Leah Alcala called "learning by mistake."
Finally, for me videos are a great resources for my teachings. Some videos can be long and unnecessary but as long as they are math videos I always watch them because I get at least one usual thing out it.
Regarding sharing with my students, I didn't do it in all of my student teachings but in the future when I come across reliable videos like TedTalk I don't hesitate using in my classroom, but usually I have to watch the videos at least two times before I show my students.


Have a good day!!!
