8 short tutorial videos: all embedded in one page vs separate pages with title link?
I'm putting together a catalogue page for eight 3-minute video tutorials explaining how to assemble electronic components (if relevant, here is an example video). The context is a robotics competition for high school students that I help organize.
We feel that having all the videos embedded on one page will allow students to reach the desired information in the fewest number of clicks from the home page (2):

I prefer this to having them click the text-only title to find their video embedded into a single page (but the performance impact for the client of loading eight iframes at once irks me).
Aside from the performance issue, is there any reason not to do this from an IA or UX standpoint?
