Among all the millions of videos out there, how do you find the great ones? How do you evaluate the quality of a video? Who are the great content creators, and what are the best curation sites? Which kinds of videos work as fun supplements, and which are best for actual instruction? How do you get students engaged in discussion after watching videos? How do you blend videos into your curriculum?

MIT has launched an initiative encouraging its students to produce short videos teaching basic concepts in science and engineering. The videos — aimed at younger students, in grades from kindergarten through high school — will be accessible through a dedicated MIT website and YouTube channel. A subset of the videos will also be available on Khan Academy, a popular not-for-profit educational site founded by an MIT alumnus. Via Stephen Bright

What a great idea! University students doing videos for younger students about science and engineering - and the students and teachers at the K12 level are able to comment and communicate with the university students who are making the videos. Another innovative idea from MIT. I haven't looked at any of the 'product' yet but will comment when I have had time to do that. Delete the scoop?

Too confusing. Not much written on the website. 14 minute instructional video in the application itself is too long. Tried it with 2 YouTube videos. Nice idea, but maybe a bit premature for teaching in a practical setting.

TubeChop allows you to easily chop a funny or interesting section from any YouTube video and share it. This is a nifty website that lets you 'chop' an interesting portion of a Youtube video and share just that bit - good for when you have a key scene for a class to view but you don't want to play the whole video clip. The shortened clip can be accessed via a unique link or by using the embed code the website provides.
Easy to use and very functional. Thanks to @Karin Gilbert - check out her video-related scoop.it page videosforlearning from the link below.

If you want more 'lecture or documentary' type videos try this site. It has been sorted for you into areas of tertiary learning with a simple useful search engine that may suggest other links for your topic. It does take a bit of time to load for some videos (size of them varies) and there are not that many to choose from if you are comparing with 'you tube' (18,302 - as at Feb 7th) - looks like a relatively new repository but useful for the tertiary sector.

Fully searchable videos. Mobento's intention is to be a 'one-stop shop' for learning videos. Mobento vets and curates all the video resources, and aims for quality rather than quantity (on launch day they only had 200 videos listed). They are a video collection sourced from other collections such as Khan Academy, TED, Stanford and Yale. Via Stephen Bright

The name Mobento? In the words of the developers - " It doesn't mean anything. We needed a name. It sounded nice." LOL.Love their sense of humour.
The videos I've watched seem to be pitched at high school & beginning undergraduate level and are very good to excellent. They are organised by category from a menu sidebar.
My usual gripe - they should have playing times with the thumbnails on the category pages rather than having to select the individual video in order to find out how long it is.
Thanks to Martin Burrett @ICTmagic who bookmarked this resource on diigo.

A reversed teaching model that delivers instruction at home through interactive, teacher-created videos and moves “homework” to the classroom. Moving lectures outside of the classroom allows teachers to spend more time with each student. Students have the opportunity to ask questions and work through problems with the guidance of their teachers and the support of their peers - creating a collaborative learning environment.
Something new? • Gives teachers more time to spend helping students • Builds stronger student/teacher relationships • Offers a way for teachers to share information with other faculty, substitute teachers, students, parents, and the community easily • Produces the ability for students to “rewind” lessons and master topics • Creates a collaborative learning environment in the classroom

Identify some problems with its use and implementation that if not addressed, could become just a fading fad.

Youtube EDU is a channel dedicated to educational video material at all levels of education. The All Categories pulldown lets you choose a level - primary and secondary education, university or life-long learning. The range of videos includes such well-known educational collections such the Khan Academy, TEDtalks, BBC Worldwide and Sesame Street, as well as institution-specific offerings from ivy league universities such as UCBerkeley and MIT.

Vialogues(Video+Dialogues) is an asynchronous Video discussion tool which can be used for leveraging digital videos for learning by adding group interaction as part of the online video experience.
Vialogues (= video dialogues) lets you upload your own videos as well as use videos from Youtube. Uploading videos the file formats supported are: .mov, .flv, mp4, mpeg, and .avi. Other formats (such as .wmv) will be supported in the future.
Questions can be posted at certain points of the video (like Grockit Answers) and the range of question types includes multi-choice (poll) as well as open-ended (text) questions. You can also delete the questions and answers if you want to do that. Unlike Grockit Answers, the video doesn't automatically pause when you start typing a question or an answer.
Private weblinks are created if you want to restrict your questions/answers to a particular group. Not so easy to figure out how to get to your own created vialogues - you have a list on the right side of the screen under My Vialogues when you log on initially, but after that it's not obvious how to get back to it - however clicking on your name/view profile works.
A plus for Moodle users is that it is easy to copy and paste the embed code to embed the Vialogue in your Moodle LMS course - Moodle participants still need a Vialogues account to see the Vialogue activity.

Hi Stephen, I'm a year late to read your scoop but am excited to know you like it! Thanks for the 9.5 score. We designed Vialogues at the EdLab of Teachers College Columbia University to support teaching and learning via meaningful discussions around videos. Pausing the video when commenting was a feature in our beta version but after receiving user feedbacks we dropped it. The reason is we expect users to have a conversation-like experience around the video instead of Q&A. Not pausing the video will encourage the users to make shorter but more frequent discussions. Please feel free to visit us at http://edlab.tc.columbia.edu
