Embedding simply means that you don't have to __leave__ the web page you are on to see a video that's posted somewhere else, such as on YouTube. Embedding is a basic skill that we should all have. Tagging is assigning descriptive words to something you have posted or created so that others can find it. How do you embed a video and add tags in Digital Catechesis? Let's take it one step at a time.

(1) Find a video in YouTube that you might use in your catechetical ministry.

(2) In YouTube, click on the "Share" button below the video.



(3) Then click on "Embed."

(4) Copy the embed code to your clipboard.

(5) Now go to Digital Catechesis. Sign in if necessary. Select the Video tab.

(6) Click on the "Add +" button next to your name, upper right corner.

(7) Add the video to the DC video by pasting the embed code (copied from YouTube) from your clipboard to the empty window. Click on "Add Video."



(8) Add tags to your video in the next window. Look for the word "tags" and fill in some descriptive words that will help others find your video. Be sure to save your work.



Questions for you to __ponder__: What makes a good tag, and what makes a weak tag, in your opinion? How do you think tags can be improved upon?

Finally,in the space below, please post a link to the video you just embedded on Digital Catechesis.
