Using YouTube to help explain something to your students is something I highly agree with! As teachers, we always want to be able to explain things perfectly to our students, but that simply isn't possible. Sometimes having someone else explain the same thing, but in a different way is exactly what our students will need for the light bulb to go "ding!" above their heads. I know, for me, having things explained in a variety of ways really helps to understand concepts that are hard.
For my PowerPoint presentation from our Education class, I inserted this YouTube video to help my students understand how the rating system works (in relation to how surveys work).
Also, YouTube can help us, as teachers, to find new and interesting ways to explain concepts to our students. I use YouTube all the time to help me with my own studies when my professors leave me lost and confused. I can see using YouTube when I'm teacher in the a similar way to help me to explain concepts to my students.
