VideoNot.es
VideoNot.es is an easy way to take synchronized notes with videos, and it works with a variety of online video sites, such as YouTube, Vimeo, Khan Academy, and more. After a video is uploaded from one of the sites, a note-taking screen is presented on the right side of the video. All the notes you type are automatically synchronized with the time of the video. Later, you can click on a note line for the video to jump to the corresponding part. One of the greatest features of VideoNot.es is that it automatically saves to your Google Drive, and can also be exported to Evernote, another note-taking website that can be accessed anywhere there is internet.
Teachers can take notes on videos they want to present to the class, or students can take notes on videos they are exploring for a writing assignment or research project. VideoNot.es would fit in nicely with CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.R1.6.7: Integrate information presented in different media or formats (e.g., visually, quantitatively) as well as in words to develop a coherent understanding of a topic or issue.
I created a VideoNot.es, taking notes on a video about fractions, to show you how quick and easy it is to manage. I used a mathematics content because that is my background and something I am comfortable with. VideoNot.es could be used as a way to integrate literacy with other content areas, such as mathematics.
