My CoolTools Presentation for my EDUC 6100 class

1. A Cool Tools Presentation by
Craig Sherman

2.  SchoolsWorld is a brand-new, multimedia
platform, providing innovative and
informative content for everyone involved with
or wanting to be involved in schools.
 This site contains videos, interactive
games, work sheets, fact sheets, information
and latest education news.

3.  Formerly known as
TeacherTV, schoolsworld.tv
 Schoolsworld.tv is based out of the United
Kingdom and contains all the video files from
TeacherTV
 This is a brand new platform that was released
this year.

4.  Great site for educational material and videos
the students can watch.
 http://www.schoolsworld.tv/node/2728
 If you can not find what you are looking for in
the top videos in the section. There is a spot on
the bottom of the page to get more specific
results.
 Unlike TeacherTube, schoolsworld actually
uses TV shows to help explain lessons.

5.  As you can see in these videos, they are more
refined then just using teachers with video
cameras .
 This makes watching the movies more
enjoyable for the students.
 I would compare these videos to Accent Health
that you watch in the Doctor’s Office.
 This site can also give educators a glimpse into
what is happening in the world of education.

6.  I found it very hard to register for the website.
 Because this is such a new website, it does not
have as much content as TeacherTube or other
educational sites.
 Based in the UK
 Limited number of games that are based on UK
standards

7.  Can not register outside of the UK
 No one outside of the UK can place videos on
this site.
 Run like a TV station (could be a strength)
 Students could get confused in some content
areas

8.  Fun videos that give a British perspective to
students in history
 Students and Teachers can use this as a
learning tool

9.  There are few threats in this site
 The inability to upload videos stops the
addition of bad content
