If you are looking for a video clip to support a lesson, check out this free multimedia resource, John Locker. This site keeps it simple
and offers documentary videos on a number of topics. You can search
the video library by topic, highest rated, most viewed, featured, and
recently published. The site has content from a number of video
sources. I know some schools/districts block some video sites, so
always check your video in advance to ensure that you will be able to
view it.
Note - There are ads at the beginning of the videos, but you can simply close the ad and continue to the videos.
In addition, when you create a log in to John Locker, you can upload your own documentary videos. This option supports my believe in the benefits of digital storytelling.
I hope you will find John Locker a good tool to expand and extend
learning in your classroom. As always, leave a comment if you like this
resource. Enjoy!
It
is very easy to embed the video into your classroom website or blog.
The video page features a description of the video, the video url and
the embed code.
This example is Brazil and it's Music.
