My favorite educational video sharing site, Next Vista, has announced the finalists for their Videos of the Year. There are three Video of the Year categories; student creations, teacher creations, and collaborative creations (teachers and students producing together). One of the things that makes Next Vista outstanding is that all submitted and published videos teach some type of short lesson. All of the finalist videos exemplify that standard. One video from each category is embedded below. I encourage to watch the others as well. These videos offer great models for your own video creation projects.
