Zamzar can no longer be used to download You tube videos and I can no longer work out how to use You Tube off line: NO clear instructions
Sometimes it is not possible to use You Tube in the classroom. The site may be blocked or the video can freeze or be very slow.
To get over this you can view videos offline by using a web site that will convert and allow you to download the video.You Tube off line works very well if you use Quick Time or I Tunes to view videos as it produces a file in MP4 format . If you want to use Windows Media Player then use another website called Zamzar and when selecting the file format choose to convert to avi .
When using Zamzar don't expect to download and use immediately as a link is emailed to you and then the file has to be downloaded on to your computer.

Zamzar can no longer be used to download You tube videos
Free Technology for Teachers has a blog entry about a website Convert my You Tube but I have found this only produces an audio track not a video.
The Becta forum also has some other suggestions .
