Lab+Videos

=Use of Videos=

You can use videos in a number of ways in your lab courses:

 * 1) As a humorous way to introduce lab safety or a lab topic.
 * 2) Demonstrations can introduce students to lab techniques they have not done themselves, so that they can perform the technique in their own research.
 * 3) Exposure to lots of lab methods, may help students come up with creative research project ideas.

This page is a place for you to share favorite lab videos from You Tube or Teacher Tube. See Wiki Tips for info on how embed videos.
