TeacherTuBe:教师教学视频分享平台是提供一个分享教学视频的在线社群，从而满足教师、学校以及在家学习者需求，提供一个更以教育为中心的、更安全的管道。Teachertube为教师提供了一个随时随地通过教师来教教师的方式，促进教师专业发展。不仅如此，在Teachertube上，教师可以发布专门为学生设计的帮助学生掌握一个概念或技能的视频节目。Teachertube于2007年3月6日上线。它是由一位具有14年教育工作经验的人——杰森•史密斯(Jason Smith)策划创建的。基于教育工作者对教育实践中非常有价值的、安全可靠的Web2.0网站实际需求，在经历了用其他方法在全校范围内分享视频节目的挫折之后，杰森•史密斯，这个曾担任得克萨斯麦肯尼公立学校教师、教练、校园管理者以及学区管理者，具有14年经验的教育工作者，和他的弟弟亚当(Adam)一起，开发并创建了这样一个类似于Youtube、但只提供教育相关视频的视频分享网站。随后，杰森•史密斯的妻子朱迪(Jodie)也加入进来，通过她自己的TeacherTueb博客来帮助推动这个网站。朱迪也是一位曾担任过教师、校园技术支持和学区课程协调员等职务的、具有14年教育工作经验者。After beta testing for almost two months, TeacherTube officially launched on March 6, 2007. Our goal is to provide an online community for sharing instructional videos. We seek to fill a need for a more educationally focused, safe venue for teachers, schools, and home learners. It is a site to provide anytime, anywhere professional development with teachers teaching teachers. As well, it is a site where teachers can post videos designed for students to view in order to learn a concept or skill.TeacherTube was the idea of Jason Smith, a 14-year veteran educator. Jason has been a teacher, coach, campus administrator and district administrator in public schools. He asked the question, "Why can't teachers, students, and schools utilize the power of the read/write web for learning?" To overcome barriers, he decided to just create a site and get started trying to help. He turned to his brother, Adam, who is a younger, digital native, with technical skills. Adam used his skills to develop the site and found a web host. Soon, Jason's wife, Jodie, joined the team to start populating the site with videos and help improve the communication. She too has 14 years of experience in education as a classroom teacher, campus technology integrator, and district curriculum coordinator.
