Resource #3: TeacherTube
TeacherTube is a safe, educational environment for teachers to harness some of the power of the Read/Write Web; it is the teacher-friendly version of YouTube. It is an easy-to-search site where you can find videos for student and teacher use: teaching videos, professional development videos, student project examples, and more. One important use, especially in terms of Web 2.0 resources, is that teachers can upload their own videos here to then be embedded in blogs, wikis, or websites. Obviously, this was designed with teachers in mind, and the uses are numerous. One way I hope to use this is to both show teachers this resource and hopefully share videos and I ideas with teachers that I have found here; as a library media specialist, I think helping teacher find media resources to use in their classrooms is an important part of my job.
Although I already have two examples of TeacherTube videos in previous posts, here is one I found on this visit to TeacherTube:
