Are you looking for resources that provide "copyright friendly" images, audio and video for your learners? This post, by Richard Byrne, provides six resources. Each one provides access to materials that are in the public domain. * The Moving Image Archive. This is part of the Internet Archive and includes over 1.7 million clips. * The Public Domain Review is a project of the Open Knowledge Foundation and provides access to images, books, films, audio recording and essays. * The Free Music Archive (FMA) provides access to free music. This collection is curated and provides a range of genres. * Sound Gator provides free sound effects. Do you need the sound of a horn honking, or whipped cream coming out of a can? This is a great place to go. * Pixabay and the Morgue File are both great places to search for images. The Morgue File is a collection of photos, and Pixabay provides high-resolution images in the public domain. Byrne provides additional details on each of these six resources in the post.

Just tried to access the site and it seems to have been shut down.

Site is no longer in operation - but the concept insight lends itself to further entrepreneurship

"Over the last few years I've seen more schools opening up access to YouTube, at least to teachers, than I had in the past. YouTube for Schools has partially contributed to that trend. Tools like ViewPure and Watchkin have made using YouTube videos in schools a little less scary too. All that said, there are still lots of schools that block access to YouTube. That's why a few years ago I started to maintain a list of alternatives to YouTube." Via Beth Dichter, Antonios Bouris

WOW I will be defiantly be looking into the use of some of these. I am always hiding in a corner watching YouTube videos to ensure no nasty surprises before I show it to the children,

With so many schools and districts handcuffing faculty and students, there are ways to get around the censorship. |
