YouTube is Blocked, Now What?


You may have noticed that YouTube videos are not directly accessible to students when they are logged into Google with their student account. This change was applied by Google to our Google Education account.

Since it is so easy for inappropriate ads and video suggestions to pop up when a student views a YouTube video, there are two simple ways to eliminate ads and video suggestions so that students can view assigned YouTube items safely on their iPad. 

Method 1
Edit the original YouTube link:
To remove unwanted content, insert _popup after the word "watch" in the link.

Method 2
Edit the original YouTube link:
Original link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbssO7f1HCs,
Insert a dash "-" in between the "t" and "ube" in the link.

Please see your building LTA or call extension 1500 if you need further assistance.
