TEACHER TUBE
According to TeacherTube’s founders, “We seek to fill a need for a more educationally focused, safe venue for teachers, schools, and home learners.”
I don’t think it’s at all meant to be a replacement for YouTube. Rather, it’s a place that takes advantage of what uploaded, shared video offers — community, customization, sharing, creating, and learning from each other.
According to TeacherTube, community members can
- upload, tag, and share videos worldwide.
- upload support files to attach educational activities, assessments, lesson plans, notes, and other file formats to your video.
- browse hundreds of videos uploaded by community members.
- find, join, and create video groups to connect with people who have similar interests.
- customize the experience by subscribing to member videos, saving favorites, and creating playlists.
- integrate TeacherTube videos on Web sites using video embeds or application programming interfaces.
- make videos public or private; users can elect to broadcast their videos publicly or share them privately with those they invite.
Check TeacherTube out. Let us know what you think. Better yet, upload some of your own original work and post the links here. The site offers a great help section as well, even detailing how to download the videos for use offline. What a great way to share our resources and just have some fun.
