Using Online Videos in the EFL classroom
 

Hey all,

A couple of years ago, I had an article published on how to use online videos in the ESL/EFL classroom. Here is the article for you to read should you decided to read it.

Hey Ralph!
Great post! I LOVE to use online videos in my classroom and you wrote a spot-on article.
Where do you like to get your video from? Personally I only use online videos in my advanced level classes, so I stick mainly around videos news casts from CNN or BBC.

Does anyone have any favorite video website?
BEST!

Hi,

Thank you. That is very sweet. I download videos from YouTube and Yahoo. Then, I create worksheets for them. That way, I can use them for later classes! Recycle! Recycle! Recycle!

I like to theme my classes for the week, so, the videos vary from extreme sports to ghosts (uni. students) to whatever interests the students, as long as it fits within the parameters of what I outlined in the article.
