Video ClipsVideo clips are a great way to spark interest, trigger background knowledge, demonstrate concepts, provide review and more. Not only can teachers show video clips in class, but teachers can also post links to and embed video on their websites and class blogs, wikis and course management software so that students can have access to these videos outside of the classroom.
