You tube - Can school access this?

[dietqueen]

Just wondering or is there another type of site Teachers can access videos?

www.teachertube.com/

Why do you ask ?

Some people use video material from here

www.teachers.tv/

teacher tube is american is there a UK equivalent?

My sons primary can. His "dance" Pe lessons one year consisted of doing the macarena and cha cha slide copied from YouTube. Thiese were specialist sports coaches running it too!

teachers usually have to download the videos they want to use at home and then transfer them to the school system as youtube itself is usually banned!

I can access youtube at school, we use lots of good phonics song.

It's blocked by my LA but you can download videos to a memory stick to use.

Youtube is usually filtered. We use Google videos and teachertube, as well as things like National Geographic

Generally it's been blocked. Sometimes they've forgotten to filter google video and you can get stuff that way, normally it's just a case of downloading it at home and putting it onto stick and taking into school.

My school has it blocked, although we are looking at restoring access to teacher log-ins only. Have never heard of teachertube- thanks for the tip!

We've just gone to teacher log ins only on YouTube. About time too!

We also have teacher log ins only for Youtube.

Kiss Youtube is an easy way to save videos at home to your laptop/memory stick.

I use Youtube every day in school. I would be lost if they banned it. I spend hours at home trawling Youtube for perfect clips.

I do use Teachers TV too, but sometimes videos I use one year are not available the next, which is frustrating.

It was blanket banned by our LA but this has recently been lifted, saving me lots of downloading time!

I find youtube a fab resource

Dont suppose anyone here knows if its been lifted by east yorkshire lea?
