Why and How to Use YouTube Video Essays in Your Classroom
What Are YouTube Video Essays?
YouTube video essays are long-form (relative to many other internet videos) critical videos that make arguments about media and culture. They're usually meticulously narrated and edited, juxtaposing video footage, images, audio, and text to make an argument much like a writer would do in a traditional essay. As former YouTube talent scout Jeremy Kaye puts it, video essays "take a structured, in-depth, analytical, and sometimes persuasive approach, as opposed to the quick 'explainer' video style."
The Challenge
The challenge for teachers is to allow students to create the same structured, in-depth, analytical and persuasive video essays, not just a straightforward 'how to' or 'explainer' video.
