How can you safely share a video with your substitute teacher to avoid related video issues?

Embedding the video in a Google Slide deck is a safe method for sharing it with your substitute teacher. This approach effectively avoids the issues that can arise when sharing links directly to platforms like YouTube, where related videos or advertisements might appear that are inappropriate for the classroom setting. By embedding the video, it is contained within the presentation, ensuring that only the content you want to show is displayed.

Additionally, embedding allows for a smooth playback experience, as the video will be part of a curated narrative or lesson plan, maintaining context and coherence for the substitute teacher. This method also gives you control over the viewing environment, enabling the teacher to focus solely on the educational content without distractions.

While sending a link to the video could lead to unintended content and distractions, and methods like playing the video through a projector or creating a PDF with links may not provide the same level of control or ensure that related content is filtered out, embedding the video directly in a Google Slide presentation presents a structured and straightforward solution.
