 * Name of Web Page (YouTube): ** YouTube: The Next Major Teaching Tool?
 * URL: ** http://www.centerdigitaled.com/policy/YouTube-The-Next-Major-Teaching-Tool-.html
 * Annotation: ** The article suggests that teaching has changed dramatically throughout the years with the advent of technology. We have gone from books to e-readers, blackboards to interactive boards, and from one classic form to a new technological form. The idea of a “picture is worth a thousand words” is true when it comes to teaching with YouTube because difficult topics can be explained visually and clearly. It is the perfect tool for teaching foreign languages, helping ESL students and also for remediation. Students can take advantage of its convenience when they are home during an absence. If appropriately created and organized, it is a worthwhile engaging tool for students.
