Yes. YouTube has lots of modern information and it is easy to find out what is happening in overseas now. Sometimes, it is hard to find any information that I really want to know from Google search. However, YouTube has video clips that are easy to understand and clear. So, using YouTube is an effective learning tool!

“A picture is worth a thousand words.” (Cisco systems, 2008) That is true! If you saw the thing once in your life, you can remember about it forever because the impact to seeing the thing in real life is huge! I am a visual learner so the real experience to see the thing is the best way to remember and study for me.

Google Earth and Google Map is geographically-related! That is true and when I was teaching Geography, it was a useful tool for finding the place where we were studying in the lesson.

I agree with you. YouTube is one of effective tools for teaching. Students would be interested in watching YouTube clips in classes. In my opinion, Visual learning is easy to understand for many students. So, using YouTube videos in classes are going work effectively for students' learning.

I agree with you. I often use PowerPoint as a learning tool in my class. In my opinion, when I use PowerPoint, I can get more attentions from students. Using PowerPoint relates to bahaviour management for me. Students watch the PowerPoint slides carefully so they cannot be noisy.

It is true! Youtube videos can be beneficial in demonstrating a process to the students. I often use Youtube videos for teaching Japanese culture. For example, how to use Japanese toilet, bath and so on. Youtube is an effective learning tool!
