YouTube has started an education channel. You can go to http://www.youtube.com/ education and sign up (creating a YouTube/google acct. using your school email)
There is a lot to fish through but some really good stuff. The coolest features are that you can make your own username/channel using your school ‘identity’ , create a playlist, and then post on edline, etc for student supports, homework, etc.
Disclaimer: There is more to ‘sift’ through in order to find what you want. On the other hand once you find a person/group—you can subscribe to their channels and get updates when more is created.
*As we have opportunities to subscribe to things—I strongly suggest you keep your professional and personal subscriptions separate. For example, I have a personal twitter account but a separate on using my school email for twitter, YouTube, school tube, etc. Makes it easy to keep separate and not accidently share personal information.
COOLEST thing—There are people out there doing amazing things and capturing them on video. This is a great resource and often has links like this one http://youtu.be/gqvYOr78THo which will grab kids attention. This spotlighted video show the authors combination of music, rap, and science—worth watching!
If you use this—please share!
