Tech Blog with Video

I will be posting links to several youtube videos I make that will hopefully help and challenge your technology skills.  Below is a list of some of the most common concerns we have as a staff right now.

OVERRIDE OUR FILTER
With the newer filter and your server name and password, you can temporarily override the filter for certain websites.  This video will show you how to do this and/or request that the site be permanetly changed so that it is available to the staff.

YOUTUBE

I have blocked youtube for the students.  The main reason is the ads on around and before the video plays.  Big brother isn't a fan of this, so we are using the Educational Video Library.  If a student tries to access youtube it will take them directly to this site.  They can only access videos that we have put "in" the scrubber, which basically "cleans" all the ad's away, and leaves us with just the video.  So go ahead and add all you can.
