=2. Guidelines for Best Practice= > (See the [|guidelines] from the NC Department of Public Instruction.)
 * Selected photos and videos must specifically illustrate the targeted content an match the instructional goal.
 * Ensure that students have a meaningful interaction with images or video.
 * Make sure the image or video supplements your good instruction, not replaces it.
 * Model appropriate use an attributions of copyrighted digital images and video.

 * [|New York Magazine's Approval Matrix] A funny chart of the week's news items.
 * [|TeacherTube]: The educational version of YouTube. Not blocked, but only seems to work with Firefox at school.

=5. Video Tools=
 * Adding **&fmt=18** after any YouTube URL will allow you to view (and download) the video as a high quality .mp4 file.
 * [|KeepVid]: Download videos if you know the URL. Choose the .mp4 option to download a file playable in QuickTime.
 * [|Zamzar]: File format conversion. Be prepared for a loss of quality, however.
 * [|Video Download Helper]: Firefox add-on will allow you to download movies from webpages.
 * Movies saved as .FLV files can be inserted and played inside a SMART Notebook file. They can also be played using RealPlayer (I'm not sure if this is installed at school.) Or, try [|FLV player].
