Video Resources
There is no easy way (yet) for me to find everything you need as a teacher, but these sites are full of reliable, accurate sources of information. Check to make sure you can stream videos from your CLASSROOM COMPUTER. Your home computer probably doesn’t have the same filters that block certain sites in the school. Good luck, and remember to share the things you find.
-
Annenberg Foundation (streaming videos online)
-
FREE (Federal Resources for Educational Excellence)
-
Frontline (60 plus complete episodes online)
-
Library of Congress (10 million primary sources online)
-
MIT Open CourseWare (includes lecture notes & some audio/video)
-
National Geographic Online (mostly short clips, but interesting)
-
OpenYale Courses (currently offers seven courses in as many disciplines)
-
PBS Teachers (classroom resources and professional development)
-
Smithsonian in the Classroom (over 1300 educational resources online)
-
TeachNology (web portal hosted by private company)
-
Thinkfinity (partnership site with MA DOE; many useful resources)

Hi Henry,
Resources for next year that you might be able to help with:
- 5 Steps to a 5, AP Statistics, 2008 edition. We already talked about this one. A class room set of 30 would be ideal. If we can do it in increments, that’s good too. Next year I have 23 students signed up.
- Video or DVD series “Against All Odds”, learner.org
- A DVD player. I have a video player but find it less and less useful and frequently look to borrow a DVD players.
thank you Henry

Henry,
Twice in the last year I have caught a short portion of a Discovery Channel (or History Channel?) episode of animated Algebra lessons – it was probably 5:00 or 5:30 a.m when I saw it. I have not had any luck finding information about it on line. Maybe you can help.
thank you, Patti
Henry,
Your website’s functionality and resources are excellent. I’m glad I finally had a chance to explore it. I think we need to have you share this at a faculty meeting so more folks will send their students too. I hope you show all the freshmen during their library orientation.
I’ll visit again.
Thanks for teaching me about a feed. I enjoyed your book review of MC’s newest novel. Very cool! Maybe when I retire I’ll have time for blogging!

Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate knowing what is useful and what works well. Let me know when you find something you think should be included or announced here.
