Teachers tap Video-sharing in the Classroom On TeacherTube, educators share material, such as instructional math videos, with classrooms around the world. Another site, SchoolTube, mainly hosts videos produced by students in class with the help of their teachers. Both sites say they screen videos to make sure they are appropriate for schools, but they don't vet the clips for accuracy or quality. Despite the popularity of classroom video-sharing among some students and teachers, some experts say sites like these would serve teachers and students better if the videos faced wider scrutiny. http://www.azcentral.com/business/consumer/articles/0326biz-TeacherTube-26.html http://www.teachertube.com/http://www.schooltube.com/ Adobe Puts Free Version Of Photoshop Online The maker of the popular photo-editing software Photoshop on Thursday launched a basic version available for free online.
