Using Schooltube to View Youtube Videos
If you are looking for ways to share videos with other educational institutions, or if you just want to watch videos that promote learning, SchoolTube might just be perfect for you. This website, similar to YouTube, allows you to upload your own videos and watch those that other individuals have uploaded. Many of the same videos that are on YouTube are also on SchoolTube, so if you know of a video on YouTube that you want to watch with the School version, you can upload the content through the SchoolTube website, which allows you to upload and watch the content on just about any computer system.
If you already know the title of the YouTube video you want to watch on SchoolTube, navigate to the SchoolTube.com website, then type in the title into the search feature on the website. You must be signed in with the website in order to view the content. If you have not yet signed up with the website, click “Sign Up,” then follow the prompts provided by the website in order to create your own account. With the account created, you can now perform the video search. Generally, many schools block YouTube with the server proxy, so you can’t want innapropriate content. Because of this, even the educational videos are blocked off of YouTube. If you don’t know the name of the YouTube video, you need to go back home or to a computer not blocked by the proxy and look up the video information.
Once the video search is performed, if the video is available on the SchoolTube website, the video link appears on the screen. In order to watch the video, click the provided link and the video begins to load onto the screen. As with YouTube, you can pause, play and adjust the volume on the website.
