The potential impact of such a technological tool in the teaching of natural science program was studied. Based on the results, the channel was designed with some videos exclusively made to support the topics within this course. YouTube was chosen because it offers advantages in terms of usability, accessibility, and ubiquity which are essential issues in distance education.
