I did a bit of research to develop a concise list of You Tube channels and playlists for our Social Studies department. The feedback I got was these were very useful, so I thought I'd pass them on. Here's what I pulled together, with some brief notes...
- Crash Course World History & US History
- Fast paced
- Great opener or refresher
- Hip Hughes History
- Geared to HS AP students
- Upbeat & engaging fashion - great for new unit
- Timelines.tv
- 50 videos on 1000 years of history, produced in Britain
- Yale Courses YouTube playlists
- MANY playlists on wide variety of topics
- Smithsonian Natural History YouTube playlists
- History Teachers YouTube videos
- History set to modern music!
- Example: Attila the Hun to the tune of “Here Comes the Rain Again”
