Video Material for Undergraduate Courses
After much trial and error, I’ve found that the most reliable and ad-free way to link students to the video content I’ve made for my classes is to use a private Vimeo account, via the links below. In the list below, find the video you’re assigned to watch and then click on its title — make sure you’re looking at the correct class! Please report to me any bugs, glitches, intrusions of ads of any kind, or any content that does not seem to align properly with our class so far.
I create video lecture content like this for multiple reasons: to clear space during class for more interactive learning (in order to actually make use of our live presence in the classroom); to make the exact wording of certain lecture content easier to repeat and review; to reinforce fundamental throughlines (and reduce unnecessary repetition) for students who take more than one of my classes. Each video, then, lays down required fundamentals for your class: watch with full attention.
