Tidbit Articles
For these tidbit articles, I choose three different topics to focus on and
created three youtube video reflections on the topics. I placed links to the youtube
videos on my weebly site. In each topic, I numbered the videos from the ones that I
liked the most or found the most useful to the ones I found least useful. You can
access these videos by following this link:
