Has anyone heard of SchoolTube? If not,well i'm going to make you discover it.
What is SchoolTube,actually?
SchoolTube is a free K-12 video community. The company was founded in 2007 by Carl Arizpe and his son Andrew. It is based in St-Louis,Misouri. Basically,it's the Youtube for schools and education.
The Access At School:
ScoolTube has traction with a broad base of the American learning community. All student-generated content is teacher moderated. As of 2013,there are registered SchoolTubers users in over 50,000 K-12 schools in the United States who are uploading on average 1000 videos a day. Most schools have blocked commercial video platforms from the classroom due to inappropriate content. SchoolTube has been granted this access due to a safe moderation process that ensures all user-generated content is appropriate for the K-12 environment. SchoolTube is endorsed by many of the top national educational associations. Some top endorsers include the American Association of School Librarians and the National Science Teachers Association.
Moderation Process:
SchoolTube's content moderation process is what makes it safe platform for classroom. When a student decides to upload a video,a teacher or administrator from that student's school must approve the video before it be made live on the site. This allows schools to create strong video-sharing communities. Schools also have the option to limit a video viewing to its own school. This moderation process had led students to create higher-quality work.
