Jordan School District has recently purchased MyVideoSpot, an online content management tool that allows teachers to upload and share videos with students from a variety of platforms, including YouTube. This will allow your school to block YouTube for students, should your school make that building-level decision. There is no immediate deadline, however, all student YouTube access will be blocked starting in July 2026.
MyVideoSpot allows teachers to upload important curricular videos from sources like YouTube and create a unique URL that can be shared with students in Canvas, Nearpod, Google Slides, and more. MyVideoSpot removes unwanted ads from YouTube videos and allows teachers to select the start and end times of videos. You'll also find options for screencast recordings of up to 60 minutes. Attached you'll find a Quick Start guide to help you get started with MyVideoSpot. Please contact Digital Teaching and Learning for additional help and to schedule a training.
