The bad news is that it is always up to the users and not always easy to find appropriate permissions prior to using a YouTube downloader tool like a FireFox extension or a separate piece of software like iSkySoft or many others found online for free or at a minimal cost.īy the way, some of the absolute best video content for what we do, has been or is being developed by other practitioners – even if the end product has an amateur look, it shines with authenticity and that adds a personal quality to the presentation that nobody else has.
In best efforts to protect the Human Performance Tools team, whenever we want to discuss a video, we will share the link to it, instead of copying and hosting the content – most bloggers and podcasters use this method. The best advice is to protect yourself so you never have to worry. Some of us have been to small-sized class training where video was used, and have even seen clips used with hundreds of onlookers at keynote speeches where the speaker has pulled clips straight from the internet, all presumably with permission. If you plan on using a video in a classroom environment, and you are making any money giving that presentation, you need to protect yourself by contacting the video owner and getting permission ahead of time. If your classroom computer has internet access that doesn’t block YouTube content, playing straight from, doesn’t appear to be an issue. We thought it would be a great topic to explore and assist other practitioners that may be wrestling with this question. Some poor selections may make your content seem too entertaining and less educational. Great consideration needs to go into which videos you show, so the entertainment factor is directly linked to the learning, or to getting audience “buy-in” into a topic. Human Performance Trainers know one of the biggest impacts you can have with your audiences is to add a little humor, or seriousness to your presentations and YouTube certainly has content for us! Videos (and photos) can add a beneficial dimension to your training including making the content more accessible and interesting to participants.
