reflection on 1.3 "is it better at the movies?"

You tube is good for illustrations and video based education and also presents a collection of educators. I was able to follow most of them most especially in TED-ed.
One notes that this platform is one of the biggest and best collections of videos on the internet.
I was able to explore through the basics of making you tube channels, uploading videos. I liked the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMk1drkmSB8 introduction to you tube.


I was able to upload videos from my laptop to my-you tube channel and then uploaded them to my blog. Repeatedly this will enhance my professional learning because video illustrations are key in visualizing instruction and makes science real.
Use of wiki space was so interesting and a plus to my understanding because I had never used it and more so am now familiar with URL.
To me the best resources were observed in TED education and among others the following deserve mention.
I also created a play list
a)  Sharing the facts of design;
b)  Professional learning videos
c)  Steam traps plumbing.
And I earmarked the interesting videos to watch later. These include:


My video is leaf type drill jig at list has been published on my you tube channel.

1.    Basing on my goal that I made in my blog…

GOAL: TO REALIZE PROOF OF CONCEPT THROUGH APPLICATION OF ICT IN VOCATIONAL TRAINING INSTRUCTION.”

Am explaining the concept of jigs and fixtures that is taught in theory to practice thus proving the concept. I have by so doing integrated the existing knowledge I had on design with the knowledge I have so far obtained from CCTI i.e. using you tube platform, ICT equipment like You cam, how the educators express themselves in videos and this is relevant to my trade.
2.  My professional learning is progressing, I was ably presenting ideas on video and most importantly when I uploaded the video I saw related videos and have highlighted them to watch later so that I expand my knowledge.
I was also able to contribute to the development of criteria for evaluating a resource site basing on the two sites that we were assigned i.e. TED education and Khan Academy. Through watching videos I could subscribe and that makes me part of the community henceforth.
3.   When I evaluated the sites I visited, I was able to find the following.
a)  Most of them had objectives they were made,
b)  Were giving accurate information,
c)  Were clear and audible enough,
d)  Could give reference for more correspondences at a later time
e)  And above all could address a certain class of people others could fit best in young age, others middle age, and others to researchers for example how a wound heals itself, the great brain debate by Ted Alschuler among others.
I have tried to follow the above criteria while making my video, by making it clearer, and improving my audibility, I have given the name of the soft ware used to make the jig, and the core functions/objectives why it is needed. Lastly, I gave the blogs incase one wanted to comment, and of course this video suits only those working in mechanical production and manufacturing sections.

4.  A special recommendation is given to the following I found in TED


Also what part of the brain does a human use? Amused me.
I SUBMIT.
