[elearning] Youtube policy

[Roland Gesthuizen]

Here, teachers can access YouTube, no students have access. Personally I
would start to open up access by around year 12. Oddly enough, on Friday I
spotted a student who stumbled across a blocked YouTube site that a teacher
had listed for viewing. I suggested they try another video site and they
found what they wanted on TeacherTube. I suppose that they could have just
as easily looked it up on their phone.

Gets interesting when a school has a YouTube channel that hosts videos for
viewing by the community. I am curious how this is handled.

Regards Roland
