A coworker clued me into a neat website today, especially for any geography classes. It's called iPlanitude.com and it's a compilation of videos from around the world that others can add to, and shows examples of daily life activities. Anyone can add videos to it, and use it free of charge. Right now there are a few videos from Latin America and Tibet you can watch. But the neat thing about it is that they are also looking for students to create short videos about daily life in America to post to the site. It might make for a really neat assignment for those students going somewhere for Spring Break (or even just staying home, too!)
Oh yeah, and the two responsible for this site are teachers here at CHS! Heidi Berbee and Allison Hanson created this site, with two others, in response to other requests from teachers about finding short video clips that show life outside of the US in an interesting way.
