TeacherTube

TeacherTube is an educational resource for students and teachers that can be applied in the classroom. It has the same concept as YouTube but without the fear of stumbling upon unrelated information. An account member is able to  search for videos, search teaching related classified ads, photos, channels, videos, and documents, all which YouTube does not provide.  All of these can be implemented in a planned lesson, assist in lesson planning, used for “educational” transition time between, and as part of the class’s reward system.  It is a great resource to heighten students awareness of the world they currently live in, spark interest and motivation to learn new topics, and provide enrichment or in-depth material included in a specific topic.  With the vast amount of information TeacherTube provides, the whole classroom is guaranteed to reap the benefits.
