Blender to High school students, and I agree with you with
the need for bite sized informational pieces. Our school
does not block Youtube, so I can gather the project based
ones from there or directly from the Blender site, but
oftentimes they are too complex even for the high school
students. I went to school for computer animation, so I can
usually get by with the small stuff, but it would be great
to have access to chunked lessons that I can have my
student's review.<br>
<br>
As for a common "marketplace" for things of this nature, I
haven't a clue, but if you happen to get them downloaded
somewhere, please let me know.<br>

I thougth I'd introduce myself. I've using Blender for
a decade and for the past 5 years teaching middle school
kids to use Blender. Is anyone else working with kids
and Blender?<br>
<br>
I've created a number of video tutorials and I'm
thinking of putting them online to share. I'm thinking
youtube but I'd like to have someplace that we can
download from easily so we can put them on local
machines. Most schools seem to block youtube so the
download is necessary. What are people using?<br>
<br>
My feeling is that most existing online tutorials are
project oriented and a little too long (> 5
minutes). The students need bite-sized tasks that have
a payoff. They seem to be pretty good at using
different skills to create a final project. For
example, I start them out with a<br>
5 minute video on the Blender interface. Then I have a
number of short ones on modeling, animation, tracking,
etc.<br>
