As I was researching today I came across a new site that I have really enjoyed. It is called Moving at the Speed of Creativity. I love the site and the resources provided.
I really liked the section on Videos for PD. The list has some very important topics as educators we should be aware of and on the top of our game with.
Make sure to check out their site Moving at the Speed of Creativity.
The following are links to educational videos I use for professional development workshops and presentations with teachers, students and parents. If you know of other videos that should be included in this list, please add a link as a comment to this page. Some of these videos are hosted on YouTube, TeacherTube, or other sites as embedded Flash media – Tips for downloading offline copies of Flash videos are also available. Also be sure to check out Alex Couros’ post, “90+ Videos for Tech. & Media Literacy.” If you’re interested in inviting me to present for your organization, please use the contact form on my “Speaking” page.
