Online Tutorials


YouTube Tutorials
This is a two-part tutorial created by Mary Parrish that gives step-by-step instructions on how to download a video from YouTube, convert it, and play it on Windows Media Player. YouTube is usually blocked on school networks, so this is a way to download the "GOOD" YouTube videos at home and bring them to the classroom. The two programs that you will need to download are completely free and legal for your use, and they do not contain any spyware that will clog up your computer registry.

Create a Secret Revealer in Promethean v3
This is a short tutorial created by Mary Parrish that shows you a very simple way to create a secret revealer that your students will love. The secret revealer magically looks through a picture to see another picture hidden behind it. Make your lessons more engaging for your students using this tool.

The first link opens in Windows Explorer, and the second link is a stand-alone program. Either can be saved to your computer.

Slices and Shadows Tutorials
Slices and Shadows, Unit 7 of the Georgia Performance Standards Frameworks for 7th Grade Math, addresses the geometry of 3-dimensional objects, specifically by using 2-dimensional plane figures. In this unit, the students create 3-dimensional objects by transformations of 2-dimensional plane figures. The students also explore 2-dimensional cross-sections of cylinders, cones, pyramids, and prisms.

Google Sketchup, a program free for downloading, is an invaluable instruction and assessment tool for teachers. These tutorials, designed to assist math teachers, were created by Jerry Bunch at the Macon State College ETC.
