Navigating RSS
We have created RSSMiller&CohenMiller2025 to facilitate access to OVRs and other media-relevant resources. These pages, developed with Protopage, offer selections of websites and video channels, organized by topic for easy browsing and viewing. Start by clicking on Sociology OVRs to access sociology-specific video repositories, and then note the following points:
1. Page: This page displays about 150 sociology-related sites arranged in three alphabetically ordered columns.
(a) Scroll through columns to explore different OVR sources.
(b) Note alphabetical order to quickly find specific content providers.
2. Widgets: Each widget (content provider) shows the latest videos uploaded to its respective source. We have set the revealed load at 20.
(a) Scroll within widget to view video titles (grab vertical scroller on right-side of widget).
(b) Hover cursor over video title to see a video's length of time on site.
(c) Click on video title to start immediate streaming.
(d) Click on widget title to visit the OVR.
(e) The final widget in the last column contains playlists on various sociology topics, offering thematically organized content derived from other OVRs not listed on the page as widgets.
3. Tabs: Note the tabs organized near the top of any page. These, in effect, are folders by topic. Click on any folder title to go to relevant widgets.
By utilizing these pages, a substantial amount of sociology-related video content can be displayed and accessed. Although instructors should check back regularly, as widgets automatically update to display the latest videos from each OVR. [Include part here re how to receive notifications.] However, we encourage instructors to create their own RSS pages with this free application in order to personalize search activity.
