Common Craft Videos
Posted in Help & Resources, Learning
I have become a fanatical follower of the Common Craft Videos in Plain English, ever since you posted a link to them to explain RSS. I have them in my feeds, on my reading list, and in my YouTube subscriptions, just to be sure I don’t miss anything. A big thankyou to DU for discovering them for me.
I just wonder if you are making any further use of them, in your teaching materials and programmes. (Forgive me for not reading through all the stuff on the website to find out.)
I also think they should be used in schools, in lessons about living in the real world after school. But that’s not your concern – except perhaps where schools are helping to teach the senior generation.
Their only drawback, perhaps, for the older person who is hard of hearing, is the rather fast delivery in an American Accent! But I’m coping so far.

Thanks Judith,
We are working on the resources for Silver Surfers’ Day 2010 at present and we’ll certainly be having a look at these to see how they can be used.

I 100% agree with you Judith – once I ‘got over’ my problem with the American accent, I really loved their videos. Others, see here for the RSS one:
