Thing 20
I love youtube. It is a website I am on daily. I love watching funny videos, or sometimes just listening to music while I am studying. I chose the video for School of Rock, Jack Black singing the Math Song. I find it funny and interesting. The movie is great, and this song helps keep the students involved. They are the age of students I would like to teach. Everyone wishes school could always be that way! I am not sure if this would be safe to put on all students computers in schools. Anything now days can be found on youtube. It is a site where people post everything. It can be monitored, but there are ways around everything. Although as a teacher, showing some videos could be necessary at times.

I also would like to teach students this age, Kenna! I am a big youtube user too. I do agree that this in a student's hands is not really the best idea because I remember when the Myspace had gotten really big, before they had blocked it on the school computers. We were always wanting to be on our Myspace when the teacher was not in the room or not paying any attention when we really should of been using the computer time wisely. I think that students would want to be on Youtube more than doing their work.
