Resource:Social Sciences Media Vault & More
Provider:OpenVault Media Library: Social Science
Summary:Age Range: 12 and up (About Middle/High School with Parental Guidance)
ClickScholar Nancy Hogan recommended this site that contains free media archives with video clips and interviews from 1963-1993 covering the following subjects: Arts, Business, Education, Humanities, Science & Technology, and Social Sciences
Description:I focused on "Social Sciences" for this ClickSchooling review which includes the following sub-categories:

• Anthropology
• Civil Engineering
• Criminal Justice
• Geography
• History
• Home Economics
• Law
• Political Science
• Psychology
• Religion
• Sociology
• Sports & Games
• Women's Studies

Click on any topic and a page opens with a menu of archived media. There is an image, a title, and a brief description. If interested, simply click on the image icon. A new page opens where you can get a full description of what is contained in the media vault, a click-and-play video, and the transcript.

There are some classic speeches in the archive given by political and social figures who have impacted world history. There are videos of anthropological interest including films of Australian aborigines and native Americans. There are interviews with athletes who broke racial barriers in sports, and women who have impacted every realm of our culture and society.

Again, this review focuses on just Social Sciences. Use the menu to browse all of the topics available. It might help you to read the FAQs - you can access them on a tiny menu at the bottom of the home page.
This is a terrific research resource - bookmark it to return often.

Enjoy!
