Many teachers have been using YouTube to share videos with their classes, and for good reason. YouTube offers a lot of conveniences that make it a very attractive platform for delivering video content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, most teachers with whom I've spoken do not want to be YouTube superstars. In fact, most of them don't want anyone<\/em> watching their videos \u2014 except, of course, their students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this reason, I've recommended setting the privacy of such videos to \"unlisted.\" An unlisted video is essentially invisible to anyone who doesn't have that gnarly and convoluted direct YouTube link. The only other options are \"public\" and \"private,\" neither of which would seem to do the job \u2014 at least, not at first glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there is another way, which may be better, at least sometimes. Let's take a second look at that \"private\" setting. A private video can normally be seen only by you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"[screenshot]\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Click on that \"share\" button, though, and you open up a new dialog. Here you could enter individual email addresses to allow specific people to view. That's kind of a pain, but (now that Xavier is a Google campus) you also have the option to enable viewing by \"everyone at xula.edu.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"[screenshot]\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You'll still have to share the link with your students, of course. Additionally, your students must be logged into YouTube using their xula.edu account. If they are logged in with a personal account, they won't be able to view the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In most cases, the \"unlisted\" setting is sufficient, perhaps even preferable. But if you are especially sensitive about who might view your video, this option is worth considering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(As always, I urge teachers to consider doing the extra work to make your content fully and legally public.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A tip of the hat to Asem Abdulahad of the Department of Chemistry for this pointer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
