Rolling Out the Ball: Use of Technology in HS PE

I’ve decided to try a few new things.  First is to create a fitness blog, and either require students to visit the blog, or give them extra credit for visiting and reporting out on what they see.  I’ve used video as motivational and instructional frequently, and I’m going to post a few of my favorites here just as part of my experiment.

The Everyday Athlete:  I just discovered that I might not be able to embed a video, so here is the link:

Everyday Athlete

OK, so I’ve read in the forums how to do the embedding piece.  I think that this will be a much more usable feature once embedded.  Here it is below as I will do this precisely by the instructions.

Before I navigate away from here, above I’ve customized the youtube video to eliminate the other links after the chosen video is over. Don’t want students to drift off on to youtube, although I’m sure they will anyway.

So, click here for instructions on how to embed video & to customize in youtube. I think that google video has similar features. More on that some other time!
