Video 1: http://www.nextvista.org/theme/
This video on theme was supposed to explain theme to students through the use of Romeo and Juliet. While the content was great, and the presenter had great voice quality, I would have appreciated a change in scenery. It would have been nice to see something other than the teacher speaking into the camera. Maybe some images of the characters, or visual examples of the topic.

Video 2: http://www.nextvista.org/limits-and-love/
When the video began, I thought it would be really interesting! The split screen and students "acting" made this movie fun! I enjoyed the whole thing, and it was short enough that I'm sure students would like it. While the video itself was well put together, I feel that it was lacking content. I didn't understand what they were trying to teach the audience. Perhaps this video is just the introduction to a lesson. If so, I want to see what comes next! I'm sure it would be just as good as this video!


Video 3: http://www.nextvista.org/baby-energy/
My favorite video by far!! Finally a video that had both content and visual images that are appealing to the viewer! Who doesn't want to watch a cute baby? The video of the baby on the playground shows how the topic of energy relates to real life. The summary at the end was a great way to tie in all that was taught briefly, and remind the students to look around in their own lives for examples of energy was the perfect finish. I hope to find more videos like this, and more importantly, to create videos just as great!
