TitleYouTube for Schools
BodyYouTube resources for language teachers abound: documentaries, videos in the target language, wordless videos, and so much more. However, it can be hard to find the useful materials among everything else that is also on YouTube. Now YouTube has launched a YouTube for Schools. According to YouTube’s blog, the new section is “a network setting that school administrators can turn on to grant access only to the educational content from YouTube EDU. Teachers can choose from the hundreds of thousands of videos on YouTube EDU created by more than 600 partners like the Smithsonian, TED, Steve Spangler Science, and Numberphile.”
