Things to think about (1):

Do you want your students on youtube?teachertube and schooltube are alternatives, but the content is not as broad.

How will you present this?Do you need a lab to show an audience?Is lab time feasable?

Kids are faster than you think they will beWhat will you do with the kids who finish early?

Things to think about (2):

How will you allow students to collaborate?Will you permit it or require it or not allow it?

How will you assess student work?What items would be appropriate for a rubric?Will you require a video?

Will you have students work alone, in partners or in groups?

Will that affect your assessment?Will that make things easier or more difficult?

Things to think about (3):

How do copyright laws affect what you want to do?Which tool for copyright will you teach?

How is the bandwidth in your school?Will it work in your lab?Do you need to do a test run?
