Teacher Zone Math Video Tutorials

Teacher Zone is a collection of more than 1,000 math video tutorials created by Ten Marks. Teacher Zone covers a wide range of math skills from third grade to high school, including Algebra and Geometry. All of the videos are hosted on YouTube, but by registering with Teacher Zone, you have access to all of the videos by category and/or grade level. Like YouTube, you can copy the embed code to place on your website, online course, blog, or wiki. You also have some good choices when it comes to bookmarking the videos as well. If your school blocks YouTube videos, Teacher Zone provides access to these tutorials in a secondary format that is not as likely to be blocked by your school filter.

MLTI Minute

The good folks at MLTI have created a wonderful series of video podcasts called "MLTI Minute" which teach viewers how to do various functions with their MLTI computer.  Users can either view the episodes at the MLTI Minute site, or they can RSS subscribe to them so that when a new tutorial is posted, it comes to their reader.  The beauty of these tutorials is that they are fairly short in length.  Don't let the name mislead you, some are longer than one minute, but at least you are warned ahead of time how long they will be.  There is a fair-sized library of tutorials they have created, so I would recommend that one check the site out first and look at some of the older posts.  Very Cool!!!
