BarbinTN Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Can you tell me if you have 24/7 access to the videos? Is it a down loading thing or just click and watch? Thanks, Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelli in TN Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 24/7 access, and no dowloading, it is streaming video. You need a good fast connection. We use it every day, multiple times a day, with kids from 1st-11th grades! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelda Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 We use it nearly everyday...it reminds me a lot of film strips. Is it necessary? No. But it is a nice diversion with an educational bent and a little multimedia is fun for everyone. Plus, there's so much right there at your fingertips.

Kelli in TN Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Oh! And do not forget to look at the teacher materials tab for each video. Sometimes the teacher support materials are dry and boring, but MANY of them are actually quite helpful and interesting. You might find quizzes or worksheets or games to reinforce learning. Or you might find pages and pages of dry teacher notes appropriate only for the classroom setting. You never know, so always look!:cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tammyla Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 I use it, and enjoy (free access) here. However, the access isn't instant imo. Each video must be "streamed" before you can view it, and that can take some time. Now, for me it's worth it, but I don't pay for it.:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We downgraded our speed back in November to save money. Our internet was still fast, but I could not stream video anymore. We had to use the option where you watch just segments of videos because to watch anymore than that at a time was a frustrating and time consuming process. By January we had bumped our internet back up to a faster package!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
