I know that this works on a mac, but I am not sure if it works on a PC. I hope this helps...

There are two approaches to this that I know of. Both of them I don't like. They are unstable and can be intimidating to non-techies. 1. Websites that help you download videos - they move all the time and Google sometimes block them. I don't want to check them constantly and update our site. 2. Browsers addons - I feel teachers will find downloading and installing software too hard. Also, from what I have seen so far, I don't really trust them. (I use http://www.downloadhelper.net/ for Firefox but I have seen some questionable software for IE) Do you know of any other option I can offer?
