Exploration 15: TeacherTube

I previewed TeacherTube today... which is a pretty cool site, although I had some trouble with it. Luckily I have been to the site before and know that it is not always as difficult as I found it to be today...there were really long waits for it to find videos for all of the topics I tried, and it took a really long time for the videos to load fully. I was able to watch a student-made video about recess and an interesting video about guided reading.

I think this site has wonderful potential. It is an awesome resource for teachers to learn about many different topics, from other teachers, and also it would be very motivating for kids to be able to put together videos that would then be shown on TeacherTube.
