Get Video

I used Any Video Converter to save a YouTube video to my computer. I found a video on YouTube that suggested using Any Video Converter to convert and save videos to your computer. It also showed how to save and convert the video. I thought this video was appropriate for the assignment since the assignment was to save a video from YouTube. I downloaded the converter to my computer. I was able to save the video to my computer and then post it to TeacherTube. I saved the video as a wmv file.


Having the ability to save YouTube videos and videos from other websites is a very useful tool. I can download videos onto my computer and access them when I do not have internet. I can download learning videos to use with my students, but also teach the students to use the converter to save videos to their own computers.


This is the video I was able to save using Any Video Converter. I also uploaded it to TeacherTube. Click HERE to see the video on YouTube.
