SchoolTube

SchoolTube is a media sharing website for students and educators. It is free, safe and endorsed by premier education associations. Teachers and students can upload videos and share them with the rest of the world. Any student videos must be first approved by a registered teacher. These videos can showcase academics, sports or any club events. Teachers can share media right from their classroom and learn from other teachers how to integrate technology into the lessons. Parents can keep up with their child's school and also show off their child's talents and accomplishments.

Mathematics is often one of the subjects that students do not find very interesting. Therefore, teachers must try their best to engage their students. I came across a lot of fun and interesting videos done by teachers on SchoolTube. One that especially stood out to me was a rap song done by a teacher called, "Super Base", which teaches students about exponents and bases. It was a remake of Nicki Minaj's song "Super Bass" and the teacher got all her students involved in the video. It is very fun and would definitely catch any student's interest.
