Thank you so much for this video! It makes everything so clear. I feel like I can do this now!

Thanks for breaking it up. You definitely make the edTPA easy to understand.

I've noticed that I didn't ask enough questions in my videos. Is it possible to still pass if my videos don't show everything they are looking for.

I have a question about length of time. I have two videos, one video is about 1:55 and the second 4:30. = combined video time is 6:25. Is it okay to have a video that is under 3 minutes, since the combined video time of the two clips is over 3 minutes? thank you!

Hi Mrs. Yates, thank you so much for the video. you mentioned that GoPro won't work as the video need to show your face. I often move around in the class to check and talk with students. GoPro can see clearly I am moving. does it work? how clear the face has to be shown in the video? thank you.

Thank you for your videos! I am completing Elementary Math and I want to use a video of whole group instruction and a video clip of small group instruction. Is it ok to use both?

Thanks so much for your useful videos and for your helpful responses always! Do both video clips have to showcase the whole group? If I wanted to do one clip of the whole group and one of me working with a small group is that okay?

I am so happy I found your videos. You have done so much to calm my nerves at every step of the process. Your voice is so soothing.

I have a question about the clips: my camera automatically saves my video files as 20 minute segments, even though I did not stop the camera. There is a 2-3 second break between the video files on the memory card. One of the segments I would like to use straddles two of these files. I know we aren't supposed to splice, but in the case, it doesn't seem "fair." Is the small "glitch in the matrix" that happens from the missing 2 seconds of footage really that big of a deal/can I explain the limitations of the camera I was using somewhere in my commentary? Should I just leave off the extra 38 seconds I wanted to add from the start of the second file? Would including this additional 38 seconds on the end of a 6 minute clip, even though it (hopefully obviously) flows immediately together with said tiny "glitch in the matrix" from the missing 2 seconds cause a condition code on my clip? Please help!

Thanks again for all you do for all of us new teachers going through this process.

Hi Mrs. Yates, thank you for this video. I think I know the answer, but I wanted to double check: both of my video clips that I include for task two can come from the same lesson, right? So long as their showing me do the things that are specifically laid out in my handbook? Thank you for your time!
