Massive fan of using videos, podcasts and vods in the classroom, already effectively doing this in all my classes.
Some great videos out there (no sense re-inventing the wheel) that are really good to use for History and English.
Some of the best are:
- Historyteachers (youtube) - these guys put together funny music video clips based on famous songs but use historical info as the lyrics. Really good for introduction lessons - big variety of topics.
- Advertisements - when we look at advertising in English youtube is invaluable for the amount of great examples that are readily available.
- Podcasts - http://www.abc.net.au/ the ABC site is a great resource for podcasts - shows like the conversation hour on 702 ABC Sydney make for great listening tasks.
