Alternatives to YouTube

We have probably all used YouTube to show our students some neat learning concept, and have often been met with frustration that YouTube is blocked for students. We understand the reasoning, but really would like our students to have access to view the great resource we showed earlier.

There are some alternatives that you could use. Here are a few of them:

SchoolTube.com. This is not blocked on our district and if you sign up for a FREE account, then YOU could make a neat video and upload it to YOUR channel and then share the link via Google Classroom. Another option is to simply peruse their library selection.

TeacherTube.com is an another option.  Sign up for FREE, upload your own video, or peruse their library.

Nextvista.org. There are already hundreds of videos--all education based, for you to use and share with your students via Google Classroom.

If there is a video that seems to only be on YouTube, don't forget there IS a work around. Check out this post from a few weeks ago for a reminder.

Hopefully, the next time you feel discouraged because you can't share a YouTube video with your students, you're remember that YES! you have options!
