Once again, Open Culture has discovered a real gem for education. Khan Academy has a YouTube Channel on which they have posted hundreds of mathematics and science tutorial videos. The videos range in length from five minutes to 20+ minutes. The videos that I previewed had clear spoken commentary as well as clear visual aids. A sample is embedded below.

The Khan Academy YouTube Channel could be a good place to find videos for your classroom blog or website.

That's a great resource. It's too bad so many school districts block YouTube. It would be nice if teachers could at least have access to it.
I have to download YouTube videos at home (using Google Chrome and script command) and then convert the video from .flv to Windows Media using WM Converter.
Plus, I can't even preview videos on unblocked sites because everyone uses YouTube to host the videos. Argh!
