PE5_YouTube

To further my exploration with YouTube I used it as an avenue to extend information via a public Channel at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine. Yesterday the college hosted a Integrative Discussion Group where five panelists discussed oncology in different healing modalities. I was the videographer for this event, which allowed my new iMovie skills to be utilized. Since video is a great way to engage many different technology users, this particular group of people were invited via a Facebook invite. Over 1400 people were notified of this event and were asked to R.S.V.P.. By using the PacificCollege channel on YouTube I was able to share these movies broken down into 10 minute segments to be watched in sequence by any user. By accessing the invite through FaceBook I was able to post the videos directly onto the invitation allowing all invited participants to comment and post their thoughts on the invite wall. To get the message out to more users, I posted the same links to view these videos on Deb Davies FaceBook wall, the creator of the invite and Chair of the discussion group. The purpose for using YouTube in tandem with FaceBook was to create more discussion and learning outside of the initial live discussion group. Stay tuned to see if this application worked.
