Discovery Streaming: An Easy Resource to Use Tomorrow

Usage Requirements:1. Live video streaming demands a large amount of bandwidth. This can result in the network crashing or moving at an extremely low speed. Due to this, please do not use this product with your students as a live streaming video and/or save any video/segments to the school’s network drives. 2. All video clips should be reviewed in advance and saved on a flash drive or burned to a CD. 3. If you opt to save a small video segment to the Goodies (G) or student drive, it is imperative that this video segment be deleted at the conclusion of that day.

4. “Playlists” can be created by teachers for future reference on My Content within Discovery Education Streaming. 5. Teachers may not use any saved videos if subscription expires.
