ICT and education, technology application

SchoolTube Peter Ford in his latest post Raffa on YouTube laments the fact that linkbacks to YouTube can’t be disabled in some way to prevent children seeing inappropriate comments on a video. I tend to agree, and it illustrates the dilemma of educators wanting to use rich content on sites such as YouTube and take regard of e-safety. However, all is not lost. Apart from the appearance of TeacherTube, we now have SchoolTube, a teacher moderated video site in which student video can uploaded and made available. Let’s get some UK content up there!
