It is much easier to find images that are not subject to copyright that we can use in teaching, this is not the case with short videos. Compared to free images, which we use more in teaching, free videos are used less. Also, there are fewer sites where you can find those that are free and available for commercial purposes.

Lately, teachers (but also students) are increasingly turning to learning through video material. In addition to learning through video materials, there are more and more teachers and students who are the creators of teaching materials. You will have the opportunity to read about programs and tools for creating video material some other time. For now, in this blog post, you will read about the sites where you can find short videos that you can use to create your materials. If you are tired of presentations and want to innovate your teaching materials, I suggest you try short videos. Because, it is more probable that the student will watch an interesting video more than a presentation that contains only text and static images. In relation to the presentation, the video is a form that students better accept.

How can you use them?

You can use short teaching videos (up to 5 minutes) to highlight key points in a lesson / topic, to send students some additional instructions, as material for a inverted classroom, or to save your shared activities and memories from school. By using ready-made, high-quality videos, you will avoid the hassle of shooting shots yourself, worrying about the quality or length of the footage.

If you want to create a short video or an explainer video, on any topic, for your students, but you are missing videos, check out the list below.

Websites where you can find videos:

  1. Pexel 
  2. Mixcit
  3. Pond5
  4. Videvo 
  5. Pixabay
  6. Coverr
  7. Motionelements

*Note:

By typing a keyword in English, you will find the desired video. However, be aware of which license it is subject to and always choose the free or commercial option in the search filters to find the ones that can benefit you.
