    This website seems great and definitely something that I would use in the classroom. I think making video lessons and using old lessons will really spice up learning and make everything clearly visible. It seems like this website can be used both by students and teachers evenly. Teachers can make them and students can use them (Students can create for projects as well). SchoolTube is similar but could maybe used as a reflection to the lessons on here.

    Videos are such an important part of digital learning and this is another tool to bring them into education without simply just passing the link out to a class. The teacher can tie in specific questions, notes, and resources. This really expands the use of the video and lends it towards 24/7 learning and the ability for students to control their own pace of the lesson. Along with this tool, I recommend VidoeNot.es and Educanon.

    Nikki, I have this same page bookmarked on my Diigo, so I definitely find it very useful and inspiring. I think Ted talks are a great resource that we can use for our students! They have so many different Ted talks on very different issues, and being able to watch a video for a quick 15 minutes can catch the attention of the students. I also feel as though the Ted talks I have watched have been very inspirational and done very well! I would definitely be able to effectively use these resources in my future classroom. I believe this resources if for teachers to use and share good Ted Talks, but then those teachers are expected to share with their students. I would recommend following Ted Talks so you can see when they post new and similar videos.

    This is brilliant! TED talks are so widely known and used in so many different walks of education! The ability to create and share lessons across such a well traveled network of people is phenomenal resource to help you find what you really need to get your things done. I am glad you bookmarked this!!

The Most Powerful Tool in the Classroom | Sarah Wike Loyola - 1 views

  •  
    Do you know what the most powerful tool is in the classroom?
  •  
    I agree, the most powerful tool in our classroom is the Internet (as long as you have tools in your classroom that can utilize it). I thought this post wonderfully and concisely explained the way teachers' roles need to change in the classroom. We are no longer the sole holders of knowledge; everyone has the capability to retrieve information, they just have to learn how to access and use it. I think this post would be useful to show to teachers who are stuck and do not want to give up control of their classroom to the "organized chaos" the article describes. The TED talk included at the end of the article was wonderful as well!

How Do We Prepare Students For Jobs That Don't Exist Yet? - 1 views

  •  
    The main thing that makes this blog post l is the youtube video embedded at the bottom. Sir Ken Robinson, critically evaluates the current school system and shows how it needs to be changed to prepare students for the jobs that do not even exist yet
  •  
    Sir Ken Robinson is one of my favorite educational speakers. His Ted Talks are all amazing. I like this resource just for its usefulness in making people think. It would make a great tool for teachers to take to administrators who are reluctant to move towards a new teaching style or technology implementation. I am lucky enough to work with an administration that already thinks this way, but I know that there are some districts that do not see a need for a change in our education system. I also think that every parent and student also need to see this video. It is important to understand why your teachers are trying new things and teaching new skills. It helps when everyone is on board. Thanks for sharing this source!

    Great find for all teachers. I think many teachers, including college professors are falling behind in this. I think the higher ed people need to replace their training manuals with this.
