You would be well served to look at Kingscrusher's YouTube channel. He has a series called The Evolution of Chess Theory that includes many of the games with the best instructive potential. He often pauses for five seconds so that viewers can guess the move.
Hi
A week before, Richard Branson, founder and chairman of Virgin Group, was promoting chess as well -- he nominated chess as the best game in the world. Branson said, “It would be wonderful if everyone in the world could enjoy the competition and sense of achievement chess can provide.” The week after Bono's post on June 19th, the Chess Caucus of the United States Congress held its first bi-partisan chess tournament with the goal of promoting chess in education. Helping the congress members with their games were some of the top scholastic chess players in the United States.
Why has this summer seen so much excitement about chess and education? And why would a scholastic chess club have the kind of impact that Bono describes?
If scholastic chess is a gateway to STEM education, then scholastic chess clubs are the path through that gateway for many young would-be chess players. These clubs meet in the school, meet regularly and are among friends. They are more like a sport club than an academic club, especially when the club encourages sanctioned tournament play. While some students learn chess during regular school hours -- for example, Armenia requires chess as part of the school curriculum and the Dalton School in New York City teaches chess to all kindergartners -- extra-curricular scholastic chess clubs are the most readily available venue for many young beginning chess players.

I'm looking for video resources that review games (Master, GM, etc), pause at important points, ask viewers to analyze, and then continue. Videos can't be too long in length (up to 30 min). Thoughts?
