We learned how to add video (embed) from youtube.com
Let’s take that a step further.
If you can upload your video to youtube.com then certainly we can place it on one of
your web pages. Therefore you will need an account at youtube.
IMPORTANT: Youtube is owned by Google! Another reason to use your new Touro
gmail and same passwword when creating the youtube account.

If you can upload your video to youtube.com then certainly we can place it on one of
your web pages. Therefore you will need an account at youtube.

Method 2: To upload to Youtube. IF you have the Jing Pro Account you can visit Jing Tools and add a

TOURO COLLEGE
You will have just one e-portfolio site for Touro College
Your home page is the most important because this is what a prospective principal or
NYS would see first! It should be a WOW! and have minimally:
Text information (name email website location or URL)
-Videos created by you that show that you are an effective communicator and teacher
-Include sample Lesson(s) and Professional Developments (also on appropriate pages)
-A “CLICK HERE FOR A SITE TOUR” This would be a great Jing.
