Due to the limitations of shipboard Internet bandwidth, be sure to download any web videos to your laptop before embarking. Personal laptops can easily interface with classroom projection systems.
Videos that can be legally downloaded from the web will usually have a download link/button on the video itself. However, if the rights-holder of a video has given permission to download it without providing a tool to do so, DownloadHelper is one of many tools available for downloading. (DownloadHelper has worked for me in the past, but exclusively on Firefox, it has not worked for me on Chrome.) YouTube does have their own download extensions that can help for YouTube videos, browse your extension web store for options.
