Every so often, I receive an email message from a fellow teacher with a humorous YouTube-hosted video linked or embedded in it. Until recently, I saw YouTube as a nuisance in regards to opportunities to supplement what I might be teaching. Lately, however, YouTube has been adding more channels of videos that teachers could make great use of, if they knew what was available. In our district, YouTube is actually blocked by our state filtering system, but teachers who feel they can make use of the materials on YouTube can request the filter bypass password, which changes weekly, from the District Technology Coordinator. (They must agree to never allow students to have the bypass password - the teachers must type it in themselves.) I started this blog post to collect educational channels on YouTube, and some direct links to appropriate videos.Educational Channels in YouTube:
- YouTube/edu - Video content provided by college and university partners
- Discovery Channel
