Time for some levity. Us teachers need to laugh at ourselves, our profession a bit. This is an absolute must.

Thanks for all of your comments and responses to my question. Perhaps the relative success of using Wibbitz depends upon the platform (if that's the right term!) upon which the web page rests. Interesting idea though.

Robin Good: Amara / Universal Subtitles is a free web-based service that allows anyone to easily sub-title and add captions to any video.
As long as you have a URL of a published video, Amara makes it very easy to caption it. The clip may be on a video sharing site or embedded in custom video player and Amara can still get to it.
Amara is made up of three main parts:
a) A subtitle creation and viewing tool (aka the widget)
c) An open protocol for subtitle search/delivery
All tools inside Amara are free and open-source.
Supported video players and video sharing sites include:
Flowplayer JW Player Firefox native player Chrome native player
See examples: http://www.universalsubtitles.org/en/videos/watch/ ;

Melvina Kurashige is a Japanese teacher who shared an idea from a school in Belgium. The kids took the idea and made it their own.

YouTube is packed full of educational stuff to share with students. It is usually our first choice when thinking about video resources online. It is true that YouTube interface is not student friendly particularly with the annoying ads and sometimes irrelevant and indecent content on the list of the featured videos but thanks to web technologies , we can now use these awesome tools to easily control the content that is displayed on YouTube and make it educationally relevant platform for our students.

It includes a great variety of authentic videos at different levels to improve your vocabulary and pronunciation. After watching/ listening to the video, you can record your own voice and receive feedback on their pronunciation. In addition to this, the site also offers some tools for teachers so that they can invite students, form classes/groups, set curriculum and goals, track students and download reports.
