Participation for first week of December

An interesting technology that people commonly use to share videos can also be really helpful in the classroom. I am of course talking about youtube. When I was preparing for a study abroad this summer I used youtube to find out about the culutre of wales and ireland and also some cool facts that I should know. It was a great visual and its readiliy avaliable so you don't have to make your own video. It is great for history majors because youtube often has clips of historical documentaries that take only a couple of minutes to show but enrich the lessons a lot.
