PBS documentary of the effects of the blue eyes brown eyes exercise

This is an amazing, powerful video. Watched it just by chance as a teen, always remembered it, used it in classes and in a club activity. Really speaks to kids, though it is pretty heavy content. Should check with parents for younger grades.

Free PBS video and lessons for use in classroom

The resources look great. I've noticed some are not available in Canada for download.

Lesson plans that go with the PBS series "Faces of America" hosted by Henry Louis Gates.

This is an excellent PBS video describing the needs and strategies for educating children to prepare them to function in the 21st century.

I have to say, I watched this when it aired, and it was infuriating to me. Like most educators, I get really excited when there is talk of tech in the classroom. This video does not have a counter-argument. What I got from it was, "Hey, look at all of this cool stuff these schools are doing." I am ready for schools to take this approach. I am ready to go for it. However, I would like to see a documentary on the numerous hurdles to having education like this in the other 99.9% of public schools. Some of these schools get to hand-pick students, or are on a lottery system. How about the cost? Or the professional development? Or the inequity in public school funding? With a couple exceptions, all I could see were dollar signs when I watched this. Money that is not there, and won't be for some time. If you want to feel behind the times, inadequate about your teaching/pedagogy, or flat out jealous, this is the video for you.
