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.
