What do you do when a student is away and they miss your key lessons on essay writing? Or when you revise a particular grammar rule? Sure a worksheet is easy, but how do you insure understanding? Or that they do it?
Instructional or tutorial video’s are the key.
WatchKnow is a free site that was created by the same creator of Wikipedia. It’s a vast collection of all the best free educational videos from a variety of sites like TeacherTube, Google Videos, National Geographic etc. Not only are they indexed in an easy to find manner, there are over 20,000 videos on a variety of subjects.
So next time students have a test or need to revise a certain skill, you can link them to tutorial videos to help them brush up on their skills.
Some other handy sites are:
