Tool 8

Tool 8 is an excellent resource for video resources. I learned things like the difference between video hosting and video sharing. I also found out that user generated sites are mostly free. Some are screened before being published. Brainpop was a great educational site for covering Math, Technology,and most of the other subject areas. BrainPop Jr. included a site for ESL so I found that very helpful since that is one of the areas that I work in.
I also visited School Tube, That was really neat because students and teachers could share their creativity, hardwork and accomplishments witht the School Tube community. Two to of the ones I found interesting were Danger of Inactive and Bones. The first video gave us detailed information about the importance of being active and how it is necessary for good health and the other gave information about the bones of the past, specifically dinosaurs. Both covers topics that are of interest to kids of all ages. I will try to get these posted on my blog. Wish me luck.
