Competence in digital pedagogy

YouTube can be used as one of the greatest resources in teaching, if it is applied meaningfully. Videos can grabs the attention of the students very quickly and at the same time, can pass the message which a teacher intend to do in the class. However, videos should be used only as a part of learning process. YouTube has plenty of useful as well as unwanted or poor quality videos regarding teaching. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the teacher to how useful he/she is utilizing them. As a teacher, I would use YouTube video as pre-task jobs, for example assign the students to watch the video prior to the class discussion. I also like to create a playlist related to the topic I am teaching, so that students can watch them later .Sometime, it is creative to develop own video and upload it in the YouTube, so that my student can benefit and well as other who are interested in the topic. Here is the link to some videos related to vocational education:

As a teacher, using google drive helps to store files in the cloud, synchronize files across devices and share files with the students. Example,
