Watch Know Learn is an excellent source for educational videos that children and teacher can access from anywhere. The age filter helps narrow down videso, but there is also a search by subject option. It draws videos from You Tube (in a site-embedded player) like this one that was under Math>Number Sense>Counting to 100.
From the site: WatchKnowLearn has indexed over 20,000 educational videos, placing them into a directory of over 3,000 categories. The videos are available without any registration or fees to teachers in the classroom and to students at home 24/7. Users can dive into our innovative directory or search for videos by subject and age level. Video titles, descriptions, age level information, and ratings are all edited for usefulness. Our Web site invites broad participation in a new kind of wiki system, guided by teachers. We have had a tremendously positive response from educators to the website. If we continue to work together, we can create an incredible, free, educational resource for students across the world.
What have you found?
This site is very interesting. I wonder if I can access it from school with the blocks that are on our school computers. I will definitely try it tomorrow, because if so this means that I will not have to save the videos to my laptop anymore. This would make my life a little easier. Thanks Johnna.
ReplyDeleteI found a great video for teaching multiplication of matrices. We are learning this in my Algebra 2 Trig classes this week. I am going to post it on the class edmodo so the students can view it to reinforce what we do in class. Thanks for a great resource. There were many more math videos for upper level math that look like they would also be very good.
