Now you are ready to actually create and share some content! But what content do you push to video and what do you keep for the classroom? My advice is to keep the content that you share through video very basic. Save the in-depth concepts for the time you have with students. If there is some background knowledge that you feel is important to review in order that students will better understand the new concepts put it in a video. Anything this that you find yourself repeating (for example order of operations, how to write a topic sentence, how to create a timeline, how to log into a school account, etc.) is also good to push to the students' individual learning space through video. Procedural types of instruction or content also lends itself to video.
