Frustrated steaming sites aren’t working in your classroom? Have no fear, the library is here! The Knowledge Center is excited to offer Swank K-12! Think of Swank as Netflix for schools. The collection found in Swank includes over 30,000 movies, documentaries, and foreign language films useful for instructional support.
Considerations and Thoughts:
-
Bookmark the URL for easy access (https://digitalcampus.swankmp.net/jsmorton388294)
-
To play, just simply select “watch”
-
We’re regularly updating the library– if the video is not available for immediate viewing simply select “request.” You will be taken to a request form – allow 24-48 hours for requests to be processed.
-
Just like other streaming sites, Swank does not have licenses with every production studio. If there is a video you need and it is unavailable via Swank, reach out to your Librarians directly. Thee will do their best to house it in the library for you.
-
If a student is absent, or if you want to assign a film outside of class time for viewing, you are able to do that. Please see the attached directions here.
