Embedding a video or presentation should be easy right. Well for me it has been a major struggle today. I was working on embedding a google slide into my wordpress site today. Needless to say I was getting extremely frustrated. I went to youtube looking for answers. After watching four videos, I was no closer to accomplishing my goal of embedding a google slide. At this point the frustration level is very high. As I was about to give up and take a break. I stumbled across something. It seemed like every video I watched had a different view than I did. But I finally came across the right area. This is at the 30 minute mark.
Finally, I was able to embed a google slide. That led me to being able to embed a video from youtube. Like I did in this blog. The feeling that I had was one of accomplishment. I may have thrown my hands up in the air and yelled “FINALLY”. It felt amazing and that led me to think about how my students feel. How often do my students feel the way that I was feeling? How often do they run into road blocks just like I did. How many of my students give up before ever feeling that sense of accomplishment? I’m not going to lie that I was about at that point of breaking down. The feeling though was what made it all worth it. I want my students to have that same feeling.
