From universities flipping the classroom to one man’s mission to preserve the art the Khene (learn on below), educators in Thailand are doing some pretty cool things with YouTube. Here’s a look at some of the ways bright Thai minds are using online video to create, broadcast and share new ways to learn.
Choc Chip Channel
What do you get when you take three of Thailand’s top Kids TV companies (Be Amazing Edutainment.,Ltd, Miracle Mushroom Co., Ltd, and Tamone Thai Co. Ltd) and get them to collaborate online? Choc Chip Channel, their new YouTube channel, is a dynamic digital playground for kids full of fun and wholesome video content. This YouTube channel is all about “edutainment,” or content that simultaneously educates and entertains kids across a variety of subjects, including Science, English, Art and everyday life experiences. Give the Choc Chip Channel edutainment approach a go by testing your own knowledge of floating oranges in the video above.

The art of playing the“แคน,” a Thai instrument known as the Khene, was born in Thailand’s northeastern Esarn culture. But it has quickly faded as the number of Khene masters has declined. Determined to change this, Weerachai Martluplao began creating instructional tutorials about the Khene, first using video recordings and CDs. Three years ago, Weerachai discovered YouTube and has since made his Khene tutorials fully digital. From lessons for all levels of players to his own performances, Weerachai’s YouTube channel is helping people within Thailand and around the world discover the art of the Khene again. Check out the video above to hear some of Weerachai’s students play these traditional Thai pipes.
Orm School
Thai students looking for some extra help with math or science can tune in to Orm School on YouTube. Dedicated to creating high-quality educational videos for everyone, Orm School has collaborated with some of Thailand’s top tutors to produce over 10,000 video tutorials. To date, their fans have watched these tutorials for over 43,584,217 minutes...that’s nearly 83 years of educational content watched online by students of all backgrounds! Next time you have a question about the Thai O-NETs (Ordinary National Educational Tests), check out their channel for over 100 different playlists full of easy-to-watch lessons.
Khon Kaen University
Khon Kaen University, one of Thailand’s nine national research universities, uses their YouTube channel as a platform to broadcast not only their own teaching content in Thai but also video projects created by their students. Their channel brings together university programming and student creativity through nearly 1,000 videos, which now have over 1.3 million views. Check out the video above for a taste of the content that Khon Kaen University fans can discover through YouTube.
These are just a few of the stories we’ve seen, but hope to see much more as educators and students look for new ways to learn online. For those of you interested in getting started on YouTube, head over to https://creatoracademy.withgoogle.com/page/education
