I love the link to Zamzar! I have found SO MANY great videos on YouTube in the past that I couldn't show the students because of the site being blocked in schools. Now, I will be able to stream these videos through my laptop onto the board using my document camera.
This is an extremely useful resource!
I agree with Jennifer! So many times, there are excellent video resources on YouTube that you are not able to view at school. With Zamar, you still have to do your research at home as you cannot convert a video at school due to the filters.
FETC was wonderful! I was wrapped up in the Discovery Education Booth. They have added so many wonderful benefits to Discovery science including assessments!
Pinnacle was also very interesting. I would love to see the county upgrade to 8.0!!! :)
