SchoolTube is a safe, free video-sharing platform for K-12 students and teachers to upload, host, and share educational videos. It functions as a moderated, school-focused alternative to sites like YouTube, with features like teacher-controlled approval processes, private channels, and interactive tools like quizzes and comments on videos. The platform aims to provide a secure online space for sharing classroom projects, school events, and other student and teacher-created content.
Description :
SchoolTube is a free K-12 video community based in St. Louis, Missouri. The company was founded in 2007 by Carl Arizpe and his son, Andrew. SchoolTube has widespread use in American primary and secondary schools. As of 2013, there are registered SchoolTube users in over 50,000 K–12 (kindergarten through 12th grade) schools in the US who are uploading, on average, 1,000 videos a day.[1] All student-generated content is teacher-moderated. Most schools have blocked commercial video platforms from the classroom due to inappropriate content. SchoolTube has been granted this access due to a moderation process to ensures user-generated content is appropriate for the K–12 environment.
