"YouTube Meets Wikipedia"
Wikipedia cofounder Larry Sanger's recent launch of an online education video library got a lot of attention last week. WatchKnow.org houses thousands of educational videos for youth ages 3-18, as well as hundreds of videos for teachers and parents.
Site users can add their own videos or edit how videos are tagged or organized on the site. Videos for students can be filtered by age and are categorized by content area and then broken down into subtopics or skills. WatchKnow.org aims to not only capitalize on the Internet as a learning environment but also provide some much-needed order to the vast clutter of free educational videos online.
Does WatchKnow.org make you more likely to use educational videos with your faculty, students, or own children? And how likely are you to create and add your own educational videos?
