The current solution in our school to blocked videos, etc. is to use TeacherTube. These videos are educational and can be accessed in classrooms.
Also, if you contact your tech director with the video, URL, etc. that you want to use in class, he/she may allow that one to be accessed in class.
GoogleDocs is a way to use documents from home or outside that may be blocked by the Net Nanny.
Schoology is another option to use in classrooms. A great tool for all!

Good idea, Randy. Our school still uses VHS tapes, but we have the dual player for DVD. School budgets are taking a hit, but hopefully tech budgets are not.
Our school has the capability of broadcasting from the media/library center DVDs or tapes to the rooms. If the science classes have a program to watch (Bill Nye the Sci guy) then, it can be broadcast to the rooms.
