Additional Notes on Uploading to YouTube:
Before delving into YouTube's format or usage, it's crucial to clarify that all the work we undertake on YouTube will be unlisted. This means that it won't be searchable or accessible to the general public without the exact URL. This approach prioritizes your safety and security, especially in the learning environment we're creating which can be a vulnerable space. The pages we're working on as a group are password-protected, ensuring only students can access them, and the videos on YouTube will be unlisted as an additional layer of privacy.
That being said, it should also be noted that this setup offers some really unique benefits. For instance, while the videos won't be publicly available, you can still utilize your own video at a later time to show a prospective student, or as an additional resource in your classes. Additionally, having access to recordings of your teaching sessions allows for self-reflection and learning, while also offering insights from other students' experiences. This setup enhances the learning process and provides a valuable resource for your personal growth and development as a teacher.
We've opted to utilize YouTube as our platform for sharing videos due to its accessibility across all devices, including phones, tablets, and computers. While YouTube offers convenience, it's important to acknowledge that no sharing format is perfect. Each platform requires some level of patience and willingness to delve into technical details to ensure smooth operation. If you encounter any issues, such as a presentation not uploading correctly, please reach out to us, and we'll assist you in resolving the issue. We appreciate your patience and persistence as we navigate this process together. Rest assured, YouTube remains the simplest format we've found for sharing this type of work collectively.
