YouTube Best Practices

If you want to strip out the advertising and sidebars that students see on YouTube, you can do this:

  1. Find the YouTube URL that you want to share with students. For example:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqvVL8IurMw

  2. Replace "watch?v=" with "embed/"

  3. The resulting URL will now open in full screen without any sidebars. This is the URL you can post to SeeSaw or email to students.
