Schoolstube - a free online video storage and sharing service from TAGLearning


Whilst the popularity of using digital video cameras and video resources in the classroom has brought many benefits, it has also led to many e-safety issues:
• Issues of being able to share videos on the internet safely and easily amongst teachers, pupils and parents
• Headache of safe storage and virus protection of large video files
• Accessing an online video service that isn't blocked by firewalls
• Directing pupils to free video sharing sites where there is a risk of inappropriate material being available

Delivered through www.schoolstube.com, this unique free online video storage and sharing service is specifically aimed at schools and guarantees a safe environment for pupils to explore and share videos.

By signing up, your school will be able to store unlimited video and audio files, broadcast and share files around the globe free of charge. The website is specifically designed for teachers to share lesson resources as well as pupils being able access video and audio content in a safe secure online environment, both in the classroom and at home.

With an existing and ever increasing library of video clips, teachers and pupils have access to a large bank of video resources for classroom projects. Unlike other video sharing sites, SchoolsTube is moderated to ensure that all public content is suitable for a young audience.

In addition your school can create a closed private video and audio channel so that only people within the school can view the posted material, meaning the privacy of content is maintained and supports a robust e-safety policy - and all these benefits come free.
