Moderation process
SchoolTube's uses a moderation process which it claims makes it safe for usage within K-12 classrooms. When a student decides to upload a video, a teacher or administrator from that student's school must approve the video before it will be made live on the site. This allows schools to create strong video-sharing communities. Schools also have the option to limit the video viewing to its own school. This moderation process has led students to create higher-quality work.[3]
