One nice feature of TeacherTube is the embedding capability. It's designed to work with Friendster, eBay, Blogger, and MySpace, but we're finding it works with other apps as well. I successfully embedded one of my
TeacherTube videos into my
TeacherWeb site. It was really easy. (For all the TeacherWeb users, here's a link to the how-to
video.) If you have trouble embedding in your wiki, you can download the code in the
Help section. Please post comments if you've found it working in other applications not mentioned here.
Another option is linking to the video through the URL. Again, it's a simple copy and paste task. (Just like I linked to the TeacherWeb video above.) One district is uploading videos to a private group in TeacherTube and linking the URLS to their digital curriculum and lesson planning software. They can link videos of instructional strategies being modeled into their professional development section and also link instructional videos to use with students to standards located in the scope and sequence. A great deal for the district to not have to host all those videos but still have access to them anytime, anywhere.
I encourage readers to share ideas they have about embedding and linking TeacherTube videos.
