I’m a little familiar with YouTube from e-mails and watching my kids look for weird videos on there. I like that you can search for videos by subject and if the Shows channel continues to grow then paying for TV may go by the wayside. I really liked the TeacherTube with all the informative videos, channels, audio, pictures and documents that could be viewed. This is a very useful tool for both teachers and librarians. While you can send links to videos on YouTube, it appears that TeacherTube lets you upload whatever information you would like to your blog (The settings on my work computer will not let me do this, I plan to try this at home and see if it works).
The first time I viewed this video it was from an e-mail a friend sent me, I later used it to inspire my students for a writing exercise will doing my student teaching. The students, working in groups, were required to write down things they were constantly hearing their teachers say and then turn it into a song with most of them choosing rap as the means of their musical expression. This lesson turned out to be a lot of fun for everyone involved. Here is the link to that video on YouTube along with a follow-up song.
