Tips and Guidelines to Help You Integrate YouTube In Your Remote Teaching

Since the outbreak of the pandemic we started a section here in EdTech and mLearning devoted for distance education. Our goal is to provide teachers with readily accessible resources to help them make the best of educational technology in their remote teaching.  We have already covered several EdTech tools, apps, and tutorials and today we are adding another interesting resource.

Below is a curated list of guidelines to help teachers and educators tap into the educational potential of YouTube. These are guidelines and tips curated from YouTube Help Centre to help you better understand how to use YouTube effectively. You may want to bookmark this page for later reference.
