I, personally, love YouTube! There are so many things available on the site that can help you in your daily life. There are literally videos on almost anything you could think of. If there is something you don't know how to do, I can almost guarantee there is a video on YouTube to show you how, step-by-step. The site can not only be used for these instructional purposes, but also for entertainment. From music videos to pranks to clips from movies, YouTube has it all. It is also great to keep up-to-date on current events. Suppose you missed the latest press conference or a news segment; you can simply search YouTube for the clip and it's like you never missed a beat! Of course, it can also be used in the classroom, with thousands of educational videos available.
The only negative about the site is there is sometimes inappropriate material that children could gain access to. So, as with all internet sites, parental supervision is important.
I chose this clip because I thought it was important to remember that learning can be fun/funny. The teacher in this video found a way to keep his students engaged and entertained as they learned a math formula.
