YouTube Channels are a great way to highlight all your work in one spot. They are sort of like a homepage for the videos that you create.
You can also use a Channel to create playlists. A playlist is a collection of videos. For instance, I created a playlist for our EDIT 763 to categorize all the videos associated with this course. You can share your playlists with others. For example, you could create a playlist of how-to do algebra videos (that you created or curated) and share that with your students. Or, you might create a playlist of all your classroom lectures to share with them. You might even create a playlist of funny videos that students could watch if they needed brain-breaks.
There are so many possibilities! While you do not need to create a playlist for this course, you should be familiar with them and I highly recommend that you eventually create a playlist of all the work that you've done for this course and link it to your portfolio.
