Get Video

I had difficulty getting this to work. I tried several programs, and downloaded an flv player. I used a website,www.keepvid.com. On this website, you paste the address in the bar provided and click download. The site provides a link, and get the option to save, or open with. I saved it, and it didn't give me the option to save as a flv. file. It immediately began to download. I went to my videos and clicked on it, and it opened with windows media player. The file properties say it is a 3GPP audio/video. I had tried several other sites, and when I w ould click get download url, it would say error.
This could video could be used for a literature class, but this assignment would benefit a teacher in any subject area and all grade levels. The reason being there are numerous clips that could be used and if saved to a teacher's own computer they'll always have them for their unit.
The NETS standards that this assignment meets are:
2. Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments
d. provide students with multiple and varied formative and summative assessments aligned with content and technology standards and use resulting data to inform learning and teaching
This assignment let us use the resulting information from our attempt at saving a you-tube video to our computer to inform our teaching. If there is a video we use frequently in a certain unit, this allowed us a method to have it in the far future in the case it is removed from the you-tube site. It also provided a summative assessment in that there were many different ways it could be done.
