Discovery Education Video Streaming

No matter what subject you are teaching, the more relevant visual stimuli you can give children about a subject, the better the chances are that they will come to truly understand that topic.  The problem faced by teachers is that providing these visuals usually requires a certain degree of inconvenience when it comes to obtaining and bringing in a variety of objects, or setting up and executing an experiment.  The solution to this dilemma may be a video streaming website like Discovery Education.  With this site finding and storing relevant visual aids for a lesson plan is quick and easy.  

However, what sets this particular site apart from other video streaming sites such as Teacher Tube is its advanced search capability.  With Discovery Education a teacher can search specifically by SOLs.  This makes finding appropriate media unbelievably efficient for the time-pressed teacher of today.  Once these videos are located, the teacher can save the videos (or segments of videos) that he/she wishes under "My Content" for easy access come class time.
