I got the above video from YouTube and it is a librarian's manifesto about becoming a 2.0 librarian and making her library 2.0 compatible.
I also got this video from YouTube. It is called March of the Librarians. It is a spoof of the movie March of the Penguins. It is about the 2007 ALA conference in Seattle. It is really cute.
I think it is important to allow teachers and librarians to have access to sites like YouTube and TeacherTube. Not only can a lot of the videos be used to help teach the necessary curriculum, but they can be used to show students that they can also create their own videos. Wouldn't it be awesome to give your class an assignment that involved them creating their own videos and posting them on TeacherTube? I noticed several student-created videos on there already.

Your videos are great! I agree that the students need to have access to this type of technology--that's what they are doing at home anyways and if we can give an assignment with an educational purpose and they can fulfill the assignment using youtube--that is 21st century technology instead of the late 1970's reports!
