Here are a few I've enjoyed recently: The Machine is Us/ing Us (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gmP4nk0EOE) My students loved this one about Web 2.0. Amateur by Lasse Gjertsen (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzqumbhfxRo) Students showed me this one and it led to a huge discussion about how the artist made it. Ok Go! in LEGO stop motion (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjCL0_0Il7w) Ok go! is a popular song where the band "dances" on treadmills. This is a LEGO stop motion animation version. The students are now excited about trying stop motion movies themselves! In general, I do well at the K12 group on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/group/K12). Thanks for sharing your links -- I am excited to check them out for my classroom. Me too! Here are a few I’ve enjoyed recently:
