The Youtube link below was brought to my attention through Twitter I had read a book by Daniel Pink called "Drive" which I enjoyed thoroughly. He contends that there is more to motivating people than carrots and sticks. Three internal motivators suggested by author are mastery, autonomy, and purpose. I bookmarked his website and signed up for his newsletter. In my own newsletter I forced those who wanted to win a prize to visit his website to get an answer to my contest. When a few weeks back he made a reference to his daughter Sophia Pink (I believe around 13) and her two friends I checked out their production.
I think they make a good point that not only refers to the part of the world that denies full use of the inter net, but our own world where questions are being asked by those who want to make it more difficult to get free access.
I have seen many YouTube presentations and they run the range from absurd, gimmicky to entertaining, educational and inspirational.
Click here to view the Sophia Pink video I feel is entertaining, educational and inspirational.

I have had one problem with YOU tube that I don't understand. Most often I can hear the sound and adjust it, but occasionally I cannot hear the sound and search all over to find how to turn on the sound and often unsuccessful just give up.
I forgot to answer the quetions on my first effort. There are a lot of videos and I will need to practice to make appropriate selections. If by streaming you are referring to the videos I think when words fail videos can pick up the slack. I will explore YouTube more often.
Great Video!! That's how we here in Library Land often feel. We are all about freedom to access any information, from anywhere, at anytime!

Hi John,
ReplyDeleteThere are typically two places you can look to control the volume. The first is right under the video itself. You should see a volume icon. When you hover over it, a bar should appear. You can slide up and down this bar to raise and lower the volume. The other place is on your computer's systems tray. If you look at the bottom right hand corner of your computer screen, you should see a volume icon there as well. You might need to adjust it there to get volume for you video.
Hope that helps!
