Thing #20

Thing #20 TeacherTube and You Tube:

YouTube is a great resource that we really should have access to in the district. I realize that there are many inappropriate videos on the website; however there is a multitude of valuable resources that are blocked. I am glad that we have Zamzar to convert the YouTube files into working files that we can show in the classroom, making YouTube a bit more accessible.

TeacherTube also has many educational videos that we can use in the classroom. I have placed a TeacherTube video of important events in American history.

Students also have the ability to upload videos to share into both websites. This allows students to view and share their projects with other students.
