The Crash Course has over 45 videos on topics ranging from Anatomy to Zoology, Artificial Intelligence to Outbreak Science. There are the more common topics one might want to learn about, like Ecology, Films, Geography, and much more. All videos are free to watch. Each video also includes a short description (some with lesson stem ideas). Crash Course videos are hosted on YouTube. If your district/school blocks YouTube, they may not be viewable. The good news for teachers whose schools block YouTube is that you can download the video if you fill out a form. Go to the Download tab from the top menu, select Students & Teachers, scroll down the page, and follow the directions.

tag(s): artificial intelligence (149), black history (130), branches of government (65), business (51), climate (83), computers (110), copyright (46), ecology (102), energy (131), engineering (126), human body (94), literature (217), media literacy (107), myths and legends (24), plants (147), politics (116), space (217), statistics (121), video (262), zoology (11)

In the Classroom

Introduce this site on your interactive whiteboard or with a projector. The site is excellent for introductory material on any topic you're starting and for giving students some background knowledge. Use Acclaim, reviewed here to organize and annotate the videos you plan to use. Crash Course is also great for your early finishers. Allow them to choose a topic they want to investigate or know more about.

Gamma uses AI to build and share presentations, documents, and websites in seconds. You can begin by creating a new Gamma using AI or starting with a blank page. The AI option then asks to start from copied text, a short prompt, or import a new file or web link. Follow Gamma's prompts to adjust themes and the appearance of your project. All projects are fully editable, making customizing content to fit your needs easy. When complete, publish your project. Share using the provided options, such as a published URL, export to a PDF or PowerPoint, or use the embed code to insert your presentation into a website. Free accounts include 400 AI credits and Gamma's basic image models, enough to create several presentations.

In the Classroom

Use Gamma to create engaging presentations to introduce and review content quickly. For example, ask Gamma to create a presentation introducing a new novel to students, including background information and vocabulary. Instead of creating a presentation, use Gamma to create an interactive website as a flipped learning activity and include links to online resources and assessments created with Microsoft Forms, reviewed here or embedded quizzes made with Blooket, reviewed here.
