Online+Media+&+Imaging+Tools

= Online Interactive Media & Imaging Tools = ==== **I was particularly taken with online media tools. These websites allow the user to edit, mix, remix and in some case record rich media (audio and video) and then publish this content. This is beyond the [|youtube,] [|teachertube] [|youcube] and googlevideo realms.** ====

YouTube has earned a reputation for featuring brain cell-slaughtering fare such as the truly abysmal Fred and playing host to the some of the most depressingly stupid comments this side of Yahoo! News. But for every participant liberally dishing out misspelled racist, sexist and homophobic talking points, there is at least one whose channel genuinely offers something provocative and educational. For teachers hoping to infuse multimedia into their classrooms, YouTube makes for an excellent starting point. Plenty of universities, nonprofits, organizations, museums and more post videos for the cause of education both in and out of schools. The following list compiles some of the ones most worthy of attention, as they feature plenty of solid content appealing to their respective audiences and actively try to make viewers smarter.
