Over the last few days, my mind travelled back in time as I tried to answer your question: Was there a specific video or multimedia source that stood out to you the most as a child?
When you asked us this over Zoom, my mind went to all the obvious answers: Bill Nye, John and Hank Green, various grammar videos, etc. These resources are useful and I want to use them all in my future classroom, but almost every student my age knows what I’m talking about when I bring up these names. I wanted to think of some unique things that teachers from my past did with multimedia.
When I saw an eagle in the sky while I was camping, I remembered a super memorable webcam I watched 15 years ago… and hence this video was born.
