YouTube videos recommended by teachers of Japanese

The following is the list of YouTube videos recommended by the Japanese language teachers who enrolled in the correspondence course "2009 How to Create Web Pages/Web Sites." One of the tasks that the course participants had to do was to embed a YouTube video onto a Web page that they were creating, and they were asked to embed the YouTube video they recommend to students of Japanese. The list is ”玉石混淆(ぎょくせきこんこう - a mixed bag of good ones and not so good ones)," so please use your commonsense when you show them to your students.

Your contribution to this list is most welcome. Please send the URLs of your recommended YouTube videos to Shunko Muroya.
